Portugal distinguishes three routes: automatic, level-based, and specific recognition, handled through DGES and higher-education institutions.
The automatic route is markedly faster where the qualification already appears on the recognised lists, so it is worth checking before starting the long procedure.
Frequently asked questions
- How long does automatic recognition take?
- Considerably quicker than the specific route, precisely because it requires no individual analysis of the syllabus.
