Your Trip in Portugal: Private Aviation Regulations and Services
As far as regulations are concerned, LunaJets' business aviation experts will handle the majority of the details during your private flight to/from Portugal, allowing you to enjoy a seamless, convenient, and uninterrupted travel experience. We'll ensure your trip runs smoothly without you having to worry about the specifics. Here's the main information on the regulations governing business aviation in Portugal. Don't hesitate to ask our agents if you need further clarification on any point.
Entry and Exit Requirements
Visas: EU, EEA, and Swiss citizens can travel to Portugal without a visa. Citizens from non-Schengen countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, or Singapore can currently visit Portugal for up to 90 days within a 180-day period without a visa for tourism, business, or family visits. Check the requirements for your country. Starting in 2025, these travellers will need to complete an online European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS) application before their trip. For updated and specific information, our agents are ready to assist you.
Customs: Standard procedures similar to regular flights, but with enhanced convenience in private aviation.
Immigration: Accelerated and more personalised controls at most airports in Portugal.
Travel Insurance: Not mandatory but highly recommended; LunaJets can assist in selecting appropriate coverage.
Flights Planning
Compliance and Permits: LunaJets will manage all compliance details with Portuguese air traffic control regulations, including obtaining necessary flight permits, landing clearances, and slot allocations, ensuring your flight adheres to all required standards and operates smoothly.
Environmental Regulations
Noise Restrictions: Adherence to noise abatement procedures is mandatory in Portugal, especially near populated areas. Specific times of the day have flight restrictions for noisier aircraft models. LunaJets can assist with navigating these regulations and, where possible, obtain waivers to ensure flexibility for your travel schedule.
Travel with Pets
Declaration and Checks: Pets imported from non-EU countries must be declared and presented to Customs for document and identity checks, fulfilling all health requirements imposed by Regulation (EU) 576/2013.
Authorised Border Control Posts: Not all border control posts (BCP) are authorised to control pets. For the most accurate information and a list of authorised airports, consult with our agents who can provide up-to-date details and ensure all requirements are met efficiently.
Contact and Local Advice
24/7 Support: If you have any trouble or questions before, during, or after your trip, you can contact our specialised agents 24/7. We are always available to assist you.
Key Contacts and Travel Advice: For essential and emergency contact information, as well as travel advice, you can visit the embassy and consulate websites of your country in Portugal. For example, the British Embassy website provides information for UK citizens. You can also consult the Portuguese government's ePortugal site, which contains a list of helplines and travel advice.
