Immigration rules tighten in Portugal
"The new law changes the legal framework for foreigners in Portugal, impacting the possibilities of regularisation for foreign citizens who are in Portugal without the appropriate visa.
The legislation represents a further change to the immigration and residence regime, changing rules on entry, stay, removal, screening, border procedures, and international protection, Executive Digest reports."

Background [June 2025]
'I never expected this much hate': migrants in fear as Portugal tells thousands to leave
"In his first news conference back in office the Minister for Cabinet Affairs announced more than 30,000 migrants have been told to leave the country after their residency requests were denied.
Minister António Leitão Amaro also told reporters that of the total 446,000 pending immigration cases, half will be rejected. It’s left a lot of potential applicants worried for their future amid a rise in hate crimes culminating in violent clashes earlier this year. CGTN’s Mia Alberti explains."
