How local support works
Our partner lawyers work in coordination with Sene & Araújo, which remains your point of contact and coordinates your matter. Local support is used, for example, to attend in-person appointments in the region, hand in or collect documents, and check on the progress of an application.
Whichever office or city you are closest to, Sene & Araújo is always your point of contact. The first step is a conversation, in person by appointment or by video call, to understand your situation and list the documents needed. From there, the team handles the steps in Brazil and in Portugal and keeps you informed at every stage.
Why Lisbon matters
Several central public services are based in Lisbon, such as the Central Registry Office (Conservatória dos Registos Centrais), which decides many Portuguese citizenship applications. Having support in the area helps when an in-person step is needed or an application has to be followed closely. See citizenship step by step and urgency in the citizenship process.
