Opportunity for Portuguese community

Consul General of Portugal visits the Bay this Friday

THE Portuguese community resident in Zululand will have a unique opportunity today to have all their documentation needs met thanks to the presence of a delegation from the Portuguese consulate.

Led by the Consul General of Portugal in Johannesburg, Dr Luísa Fragoso, the consulate team will man a ‘mobile office’ at the Protea Waterfront Hotel until 5pm.

Making use of sophisticated IT equipment, including fingerprinting and camera capability, all the consulate services will be made accessible to those of Portuguese nationality or origin.

This includes passport applications, identity documents, visas and child and marriage registrations.

In addition, the visit aims to make contact with the broader Portuguese community in the region, encouraging them to get together for important national, religious and cultural events.

Contact can be made with the consulate via email – luisa.fragoso@mne.pt
