CRUE APPOINTMENT FAQ
Certificado de Registo de Cidadão da União Europeia (CRUE) in Portugal
- This certificate is issued by the Portuguese Immigration and Borders Service (Serviço de Estrangeiros e Fronteiras, SEF) to EU citizens who reside in Portugal for more than three months. The certificate serves as proof of their registration as residents of Portugal and is a requirement for access to certain services and benefits, such as healthcare, social security, and employment.
- To obtain the certificate, EU citizens must provide proof of their identity, address, and means of support, such as proof of employment or income. They must also demonstrate that they have health insurance coverage in Portugal, either through a private health insurance plan or through their home country’s national health service.
- It is important for EU citizens who reside in Portugal to obtain the CRUE, as failure to do so may result in fines or other penalties. It is also important to note that the certificate must be renewed every five years or whenever there are changes to the individual’s personal information or circumstances.
