Portugal’s notaries service opens nationality desk

The Institute of Registries and Notaries (IRN) has opened a new Nationality Desk in Parque das Nações, Lisbon for in-house services.

In a statement, the IRN stated that the new desk “will concentrate all in-person services,” previously provided at the Central Registry Office on Rua Rodrigo da Fonseca and at the Expo Registos Space in Lisbon.

“This reorganization of in-person services aims to offer more space, better facilities, greater convenience, and greater accessibility, seeking to improve the quality of service provided to citizens,” the IRN statement emphasised.

At the new desk, the IRN “will be able to handle in-person services (both walk-ins and by appointment).”

Citizens with appointments already scheduled at the previous locations are being contacted by the IRN to confirm the date and inform them of the new address.

The new counter, at Alameda dos Oceanos, No. 67-L, will be open from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, for walk-in and walk-in services, and until 7:00 PM for appointment only.
