The process to obtain the Portugal D1 visaThe program, intended for those with an employment contract in Portugal, has undergone recent changes. Vfs globalThe company responsible for receiving applications at Portuguese consulates has implemented new security measures to prevent the use of bots in scheduling appointments.
The main new feature is the requirement for facial recognition during the online scheduling process. The system asks the user to perform movements to ensure they are a real person. In addition, the applicant must undergo a new biometric verification in person when visiting the VFS unit.

According to him, in Brazil, the service infrastructure is limited. VFS Global has units in only six states to serve the 27 federative units.

Document analysis has become the most critical point in the process. Experts from Bendita Cidadania warn that the current rigor demands absolute precision. "The level of scrutiny from Portuguese consulates today is comparable to that of the United States; any inconsistency in the form or document file is grounds for visa refusal," states Maia.
