In this video our client Michael D. is sharing his experience about his experience with the SNS (Health National Service) here in Portugal.

Utente numbers allow expats to have health benefits once they get residency, but after Covid, they are allowing expats to get the numbers before residency.

You will also need a NISS number to have full benefits from SNS.
This assistance and guidance is part of our Expat Transition Roadmap

Portugal has a high-quality health care system, appearing among the best in the world in various rankings. If only health care for retirees is taken into account, it ranks first *. It is constituted by the SNS, the National Health Service (official institutions and services that provide health care to the Government of Portugal), by the public support health subsystem (public entities that develop activities of promotion, prevention, and treatment in the area of ​​health) and by all private entities and free professionals who work in accordance with the guidelines of the NHS for the provision of care or health activity.
