The Action Plan for Migration, presented today by the Executive and which includes 41 measures, indicates that "the immigrant population increased significantly in the last year", going from 781,247 in 2022 to 1,040,000 in 2023.
The Government also compares it with the number of immigrants residing in Portugal in 2015, which was 383,759.
The document specifies that the 2023 data is provisional and these statistics do not include foreigners with regular status under the granting of residence permits, short-stay visas, study visas, work visas or temporary stay visas, as well as foreigners with irregular status.
According to the Government, most of the residence permits granted in Portugal are for the exercise of professional activity.
The document also indicates that migration contributes to "demographic revitalization and the increase in the active population", with most foreigners residing in Portugal between the ages of 25 and 44.
In the Action Plan for Migration, approved today by the Council of Ministers, the Government put an end to the exceptional regime that allowed a foreigner to enter Portugal and only then apply for a residence permit and announced the creation of a mission structure to regularize pending processes, estimated at 400 thousand.
Among the 41 measures provided for in the plan, there is also the transformation of the current mobility visa for immigrants from the Community of Portuguese-Speaking Countries (CPLP) into a community visa (Schengen), which allows for movement within the European Union, and the creation of a Foreigners and Borders Unit (UEF) in the PSP to monitor the presence of immigrants and create emergency care centers.
