Portugal Visa Stamping and Documentation Support from India
Every Portugal visa file from India goes through VFS Portugal in New Delhi, which handles applications for the Portuguese Embassy. The document side has to be complete before the appointment, because the embassy will not process an incomplete file. We plan the file backwards from the appointment date.
Every Portugal visa file from India goes through VFS Portugal in New Delhi, which handles applications for the Portuguese Embassy. The document side has to be complete before the appointment, because the embassy will not process an incomplete file. We plan the file backwards from the appointment date.
The main routes for Portugal. D2 entrepreneur, D3 highly qualified worker, D4 student, D7 passive income or pensioner, Job Seeker visa, and the revised Golden Visa (which is now mostly investment-fund-based). Each route has its own checklist on the Portuguese side, but the Indian apostille and translation chain is the same. For families joining a visa holder, the spouse and children apply separately under the Family Reunion route.
On the India side, the file usually has the apostilled and Portuguese-translated degree (for D2, D3, D4), apostilled birth certificate (for dependants), apostilled marriage certificate (for family reunion), apostilled PCC inside the freshness window, passport with the required validity, photographs to Portuguese specification, the Portuguese recipient document (employer offer, university acceptance, D7 income proof, Golden Visa investment confirmation), proof of accommodation in Portugal, and proof of financial means.
Send your Portuguese recipient and visa category on WhatsApp +91-9220161774. We will confirm the document file, the realistic working-day timeline, the VFS Portugal Delhi appointment strategy, and a written quote. The Portuguese Embassy slots in Delhi are scarce in peak months, so the appointment is often the binding constraint.

Common reasons stamping is delayed

How SiZA Handles Visa Stamping
Before any visa appointment is booked, SiZA reviews the employer authorization, medical readiness, supporting attestation, and embassy-specific paperwork to ensure the stamping appointment goes through without return.
What to send first
Review the requirement
Share the document scan, destination country, purpose, deadline, and where the original document is currently kept.
Confirm the right process
SiZA checks whether the file needs apostille, embassy attestation, HRD/Home, Chamber, translation, visa documentation, or a combined process.
Handle and update
Once the scope is clear, the file moves through the required steps with practical updates by WhatsApp or email.
Proof and return
After completion, SiZA shares completion proof, confirms payment and courier preference, then packs and dispatches the document safely.

Original personal and company documents are handled with careful custody, privacy, and controlled handoff.
Clear Updates
Customers receive updates through WhatsApp or email as the file moves through review, submission, completion, and dispatch.
Completion Proof
When work is completed, SiZA can share photos or videos so the customer can verify the result before return dispatch.
Safe Return
Return delivery is packed carefully and sent through trusted courier options after address and courier preference are confirmed.
No Shortcut Claims
SiZA does not promise fake shortcuts, bypass personal appearance rules, or help with forged or non-genuine documents.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can documents be reviewed on WhatsApp before submission?
Yes. Send a clear scan of the document (and the destination country, the receiving authority, and any deadline) to WhatsApp +91-9220161774. SiZA Global reviews the scan, identifies any condition or name-consistency issues, confirms the correct India-side chain (HRD / SDM / Home Department, MEA apostille or embassy attestation, translation if needed), and shares a written quote and realistic working-day timeline before any original moves. The scan review is free and there is no obligation at that stage.
