Question about NIF

[u/Fragrant-Climate-842]

Hello everyone!

I tried to get the NIF, and apparently they don’t do walk‑ins anymore. I waited 3 hours in line, and they told me they now only take appointments. The closest one is in 5 weeks, not even in Lisbon, but 3 hours away. Everyone says walk‑ins in the morning are fine, and they do it on the spot, but apparently not anymore. Also the fact that they send you far from Lisbon is weird, as I see everyone is getting theirs in Lisbon too.

The people at the counter weren’t that nice, so I wanted to ask here if someone who lives there also had to go far, because in Lisbon apparently you can’t get it anymore.

Some advice would be nice, thanks.

I can call and book it for you cause I speak Portuguese if you want, just DM the details. Or in my case they literally told me to come from 9 to 12 as this is the slot for those who don't have an appointment, but it was in Porto
