The last mail i got from the embassy when i emailed them about delay in tourist visa is this!
Embassy of Portugal presents its compliments and informs that it is Portugal that grants or denies Visa and when the Embassy receives the answer, the applicant will be contacted.
My question is this!
Is it Portugal that grants visa or the embassy of Portugal?
Re: How I Migrated To From Nigeria To Portugal by vibrant99(m): 12:46pm On Oct 07, 2022
All this is done electronically, that's all.

they send you the document into the cloud and its reviewed, by the Nigerian Portugal embassy and approved by Portugal country itself.

So basically, its Naija Portugal consulate, everything dey their hand.

I understandhow you feel about the delay, but it'snot only tourist visa but ALL. If you go to Facebook just type SEF Portugal and you will see notes of people who haven'tgot appointmentwith SEF(immigration). They want to attend to pple who are alrdy in Portugal first and soon they would be back again. Let's just be patient and trust God that all will be well

Just saw this on a Vlog now
Nigerian no more needed in Portugal!
Does it mean they have banned Nigerians just like the way Dubai did?
I think this answers to why appointments was halted

This vlog was posted about 3 weeks ago. Visa processing of any type has been suspended for now
Re: How I Migrated To From Nigeria To Portugal by vibrant99(m): 3:55pm On Oct 15, 2022
Visa Processing will resume on the 18th of October.

It could have been for some form of maintenance or managerial reasons, It Absolutely has nothing to do with Nigerians or anything.

Happen in August 2020, June 2020,... Doesn't exceed a 30days gap before resumption

I submitted application since August 15, 2022 to enter Portugal for 90 days for a scientific research upon an invitation by a university in Portugal. It is now almost 70 days and I have not heard from the embassy. My documents are still with them. I called the embassy two times and I was told to make inquiry through email. I have mailed three times, no response. The international relations unit of the university in Portugal also recently sent email to the embassy but I have still not get any feedback from the embassy. What could be going on? It is everywhere on their websites that decision would be taken on a short stay visa within 60 days maximum. Mine is already more than 60 days. ......What could be wrong?

I understand Portuguese embassy in Abuja is closed and not attending to applications
What I don't understand is why they are holding on to those who have applied earlier on documents for these long.
When is not as if the visa is guaranteed.
Re: How I Migrated To From Nigeria To Portugal by vibrant99(m): 4:23pm On Oct 21, 2022
is it a Study Visa? Masters or Bachelor?

Do you have contact with any of the people you submitted the same day? This will help you.

I know 3 people that have received their visa within this 1month application suspension.

The embassy is actually working, still collecting documents for verification of Documents, Legalization.

Did you submit at the VFS or embassy?
