Veto on Spanish nationality? Portugal is a safe and strategic alternative
The application for Spanish nationality may be denied on the basis of confidential information from the Police or the National Intelligence Center, especially in cases of a letter of nature, where the decision is discretionary and without the obligation to justify. This can make the process uncertain and frustrate those seeking Spanish citizenship.
Given this scenario, Portuguese nationality emerges as a strategic and safe alternative for those who wish to guarantee rights in Europe, with a more transparent process and based on clear requirements. Read the full article on here.
Why consider Portuguese nationality?
-
Process based on objective and documentary criteria, without arbitrary decisions
-
Various forms of acquisition: by descent, marriage, residence and others
-
Right to reside, work and study in all countries of the European Union
-
Access to social benefits and effective consular protection
-
Greater predictability and legal certainty
If you are facing difficulties in the Spanish process or want to plan your future with security, Portuguese nationality may be the ideal way to expand your opportunities.
