Yay!! Congrats Adrien! So cool to follow your journey, thank you for sharing all this information. I am applying this coming fall so your videos have been super helpful, and that's how I found your channel....but I also ended up enjoying all your other videos lol you have lived several lives already! cheers to this next chapter.

[@pures1n]

nice man, i am also planning on doing the vfs / sef appointment myself, not interested in paying someone 3-5k euros to look over paper work that the lawyer will have you get anyways.. lol congrats btw

[@kurtarendse5739]

Congratulations mate... Hopefully I'll be making the same journey in the near future 🙌🙌

Adrien Congratulations!

Congrats on your new residence

[@JenShea]

Thank you for sharing Adrien, a huge parabéns! It seems most people have decent experiences at SEF. What is NISS? This is a new one to me!

[@AdrienField]

NISS is the social security i believe

[@Nunov103]

You came to the place where I live,I live right above Alverca’s SEF,what a coincidence 🙃

[@mido.bel0]

Congratulations 🤩 Do u have any idea about the renewal after 2 years? Like I just wanna know if I wasn’t able to secure the minimum digital nomad salary at any point, would they not renew it?

[@seaview9948]

Hooray !

[@VeronicaKrestow22]

Thank you so much for this video. 🙏 I’m in this process right now. How long did it take to get your actual residency card in the mail? And could you travel outside of Portugal when you only had the paper print out they gave you? Big thank you for your fabulous videos!! ✨

[@AdrienField]

It took nearly 6 months to receive the card. You can travel with the paper in the meantime as long as you are leaving Schengen in and out of Portugal

[@VeronicaKrestow22]

@@AdrienField thank you so much for your response… this helps so much!! Congrats on becoming a resident. 🎉✨😊

[@VeronicaKrestow22]

@@AdrienField I hope it's okay to ask one more question ... If I fly out of Lisbon to US (with just the paper print of residency) but am connecting through Spain or another country in Schengen to get to the US, did you find that to be a problem? Or is it okay since the flight starts in Portugal? Again, thank you & wishing you a magical weekend.

[@AdrienField]

@VeronicaKrestow22 it’s a risk because you don’t pass immigration until the last country where you’re leaving Schengen. Better to fly directly in and out of pt

[@VeronicaKrestow22]

@@AdrienField Got it!! Thank you dearly. That makes perfect sense. 🙏

Bravo!!! ❤

[@actionvj]

Where did you print all your documents? Do they have an equivalent to a Staples / OfficeMax?

[@LailaMontague-m9k]

Thanks for the video! Just wondering do you know if there is a minimum stay per year on the digital nomad visa?

[@regallioness2183]

Adrian, Congratulations. What is the websiteto apply for the NISS? Thank you.

[@DavidHigginson15]

Thanks Adrien, incredibly useful. My appointment is coming up in December. Do you know if its possible to use the temporary residence letter that you have (whilst waiting for the card to arrive in the mail) to re-enter the country if you leave? I will likely have run out of my two re-entries on my visa by the time by SEF appointment is but wondering if I can still leave and re-enter the country whilst waiting on the physical card to come. ALSO WELL DONE!! Enjoy Portugal

[@RyanBurbank-c6w]

How long did it take you to book an appointment? I'm thinking of using SEF Booker just not sure if it's worth the cost

[@DavidHigginson15]

@@RyanBurbank-c6w Hey, the appointment was booked for me by the Portugese consulate in London once my visa application had been approved. Hope that helps!

[@DavidHigginson15]

Also for anyone else reading this, I've found out that YES, the receipt you receive can be used as your residence permit card until your card arrives

[@Motivational92]

What about the taxes? Have you been paying taxes before/after the appointment at sef?

[@sonjaarlow2066]

Where can you download the online SEF documents?
