To be honest, I am slightly confused by it. I don't see a clear option for the renewal of a "Titulo de Residência" that has an expired card but is still valid via decree extension until October 15 (such as a D7). Perhaps I am just missing the nomenclature.

@JohnnyPT can you clarify?

@Perpetual_traveler

True. In the case of visas, one of the possible options is a visa extension ( = prorrogação de vistos).

This new option is quite recent, just since 1st July 2025. This option requires you to send scanned copies of your passport and visa.

@JohnnyPT

Thank you! That is great!

Thank you for this.  It's good to see they are making some progress, hoping they'll get "renewal" residences/visas up and working online.  Fingers crossed.

Unfortunately this option does not work. I try to make my submission with all the information and attachements being correct, but it rejects the submission because it rejects the título number - it wants a visa number, not a título number. I believe that this option is for those who have been issued visa that are expiring or have expired because they can't get an appointment (before being issued títulos). I did not try it using the original entry visa number from years ago as that visa number is no no longer relevant since I have a título.

For whatever reason, I don't think that those with títulos can use this new system, and must still wait to be contacted.

@Perpetual_traveler,

You're right.  This online option is for visa extensions (extending the stay of the current visa) and not for residence permits renewals.

Renewal of Expired Residence Permits:

Holders of residence permits expiring before / after 30 June 2025

The deadlines have been extended as AIMA is still sorting out other problems.
