EU nationals are not restricted from finding work within Portugal and are granted a six month period to find employment with no visa. It is important to note that EU members do not require a work permit but can require a residency permit to be employed.
These are routinely given out with easy applications and acceptances. Other nationals working over three months must first obtain a resident visa. To live more than six months in Portugal, all foreigners must obtain a residence card. This enables them to government services like health care if their employment is contributing to Portuguese social security taxes. Work permits are renewable on six month contracts.
Types of Jobs in Portugal
Portugal offers the same types of job as most other European countries. Please note that for nearly every job you will need to speak fluent Portuguese. Work opportunities as an English teacher (or as a teacher for another language)
and jobs in tourism are exceptions to the rule and therefore hard to come by.
