Good day everyone.
I submitted my Portugal study visa application at VFS Lagos on Monday, and I was told that I will be having an interview at Abuja next week.

It's really weird because Portugal is known for not doing interview, I don't know what's happening.

I'm going for masters degree (Erasmus Mundus program).
What kind of questions should I be expecting?

I'm not the only person called for an interview though.

Yes some are invited for interview, some have also been recieving re-rejection letter too.
I have posted some of the questions here, check previous posts.
I will try and post new ones.

Thanks, I plan to apply for a PhD

You can use your Bsc&transcript, master and transcript, you will authenticate both, at ministry of education and Foreign Affairs.
You will submit your masters and transcript to embassy for legalization, but embassy will want to sight your authenticated Bsc&transcript to know weather you past through university before obtaining the masters. So it is your masters and transcript that will be legalized.
Then you can proceed with admission, though there are some schools also you can apply with unlegalized documents.

Travel › Re: Anyone Studying In Portugal!!!! by freedomtours(m): 8:44am On Jun 30

MouthOdor:
So only transcripts are to be legalized through the embassy right?

Your Bsc and transcript certificate if you are going for masters and your O level and transcript (ss1-ss3) if you are going for Bsc these are what you need for embassy legalization and admission application.

Igbinsf2:
it can't be September because some persons are to resume by September first, and their names are not in the list of the 313 names so I believe befor July runs out, they you should bring more list out because the time given? Don't you think so?

July will be used for visa interview for the over 313 students.
So if there to be any list, that will be from August ending going forward.
August will be used for visa approval from embassy.
Even if the person is to resume my September it does not matter, it is when he get visa appointment that he can submit his application.
I hope you are aware that some that got admission last year are also among the names of the 313 released for appointment.

Good evening,

Please I have done the upload and made payments since on the 16th of June and till date I have not received any acknowledgement of payment nor proof of application submission.

Please is that how it's suppose to be?, is anyone experiencing this?.

If You mean at ministry of education, after you uploaded your certificate,then you will need to be assisted on that for it to drop..things have changed now..they said everything is online now and no physical visitation to the ministry, but if you do not get someone to help u for it to be drop in your email you will wait for months..that is what it is now.
Some uploaded few days and there's have drop because they screenshot their remital number/number and send to someone to help them to approve it.
Just try and do that if not you will wait for long.

[quote author: good morning guys,do anyone have an idea when the next list for appointment date will be posted again?after this 313 names that just came out?

Hopefully by September after they have finished with the 313.
Someone that submitted on Tuesday this week was called to come for interview at the embassy in Abuja on 6th of July by 10:30am..that's to say, they will use the whole of July for interview for those submitting.

I got a full tuition and travel insurance scholarship. I think 25m is too much for 6 months. Cost of living isn't that high in Portugal

Okay you didn't tell me you have scholarship.
12m is still okay because you are expected to have more than what will cover your expenses.

Alright thanks.
I would be spending 6 months in Portugal for my first semester.
How many months POF do I need to show at the Portuguese embassy?

You need to show you have enough funds that will sustain you in Portugal 🇵🇹 throughout the duration of your study. You shd be having 25m and above and also add other property documents like land, building, investment certificates, if u are married, marriage certificate, these help to justify you have strong ties to your home country.

It may be very difficult to get another appointment, it was also stated there.
If you can you still have like 2 weeks to arrange yourself.

Thank you for the feedback.

Just to confirm, please Is it the original copy I took with me that would be approved or the one my school sent to them, I just want to know because my original certificate is laminated, made a mistake laminating in years back.

I told you that ministry of education will sight ur original certificate, authentication will be done on the scanned copy you uploaded, you will print it out and authenticate at foreign affairs.

So based on this, can one pay school fees now hoping that they will shortlist for appointment booking now?

Yes you can. But be also careful, embassy will be releasing appointment after compiling name of admitted students sent from the schools

Good morning all and congratulations to those that made the list.
Please Note: for the information in the embassy platform form regarding PCC, what i means that you will have to do your PCC (Police Character) authenticate at MOFA then submit it with your application, embassy will then legalize you it for you.
Do not go an print you Police Character and add it in your application without getting it legalize at MOFA (foreign affairs).

Many thanks for the response. However, my son did not get any confirmation that he is been out in waitlist for appointment and it is over a week now.
Also, how will I get an appointment for myself for Schengen visa? I will like to accompany him and I did not get any opportunity to even register my application. Every time I complete the form, it tells me something that means in essence there are no more available appointment slots. Do I have to wait by the computer on the last Monday of the month by 9:30am to complete the Registration and will be valr to get an appointment?

That category, you can be assisted in booking that category and it is at the end of the month.
Let your son make use of the 24 hours technical suport provided by the consulate to his appoinment sorted out.

Excuse me, nobody scammed and I didn't get any email. I'm just making an inquiry.

I want to know how long it takes to hear back from the moe and the step after online submission. Just someone who has experienced the online application from start to finish.

After uploading your documents and making remital payment and getting email sent to MOE for the verification of your documents, you will then come for physical verification of your original certificate after which the verification, it would be approved and drop to your email, which you can download and print for authentication. But if you don't come for physical verification it would not be approved, except you sort for it to be approved without you coming for physical verification.

Does anyone know when the appointment portal is opened on the Polish Embassy at Abuja? My son n eds an appointment for Study visa and I need one for visitor (Schengen) visa so I can accompany him. He has offered and visa letter to a university in Poland. He has completed the application form and tried to register on the Abuja Embassy Portal but he got no calendar to select a date. No information was provided to him on Next Steps. I heard from someone today that the appointment portal is opened on the last Friday of the month but the individual didn't tell me the time. However, I read I a December 2025 post on Naira land that the appointment portal is opened at 9:30am on the last Monday of the month. Which is true? What does my son need to do next? Appreciate your advise.

Appointment for work is on weekly basis and Why Study appointment and other categories of visa appointment is on last Monday of every month.
For the Study appointment after he registered through the online video verification. He will recieve a message to notify him that he has been registered on a poll for monthly appointment.
If he have done this, he should be patient once they schedule appointment he will be notified.
