What can an honorary consul do?
An honorary consul is not a career diplomat but a local resident – often a business person or lawyer – appointed by Portugal and approved by the host country. Depending on the powers granted, the honorary consul can help Portuguese citizens in an emergency (lost passport, accident, arrest), pass on applications and documents to the embassy, and certify signatures or life certificates. Passports and visas are not issued by an honorary consulate; they remain the responsibility of the embassy or a career consulate.
When is the office closed?
Expect the honorary consulate to be closed on Czech public holidays such as Statehood Day (28 September), Independence Day (28 October) and Christmas Eve (24 December). On the Portuguese national day (10 June) the office is usually closed or holds a reception.
