Documentation needed for Incoming Students
Admission Procedures and Registration for Foreign Visitors
All foreign students, except for those from within the European Union, need a permit to stay in Portugal. If you are an Erasmus Mundus Student, from a country outside the EU, you should be very attentive, because in some cases the procedures to obtain a visa may be very longwinded and bureaucratic.
Due to the COVID situation we advise you to register in your country at the right Entity as a traveler, in order they may help you during your mobility.
All students should contact the Borders and Immigration Services to inform them about the period of and duration of studies at IPT and complete all registration procedures. This registration applies to all students staying in Portugal for more than 3 months.
Students/Staff in need of differentiated support: if you need differentiated support, you should contact the IRO (gri@ipt.pt) so that we can guide and monitor you in an appropriate and personalized way.
