Who we are

Olavisa was founded to offer Portugal-based travellers a visa process that feels less like bureaucracy and more like booking a trip. Seventeen years on, we've processed tens of thousands of applications across tourism, business, study, work, and family routes — for Portuguese citizens, EU residents, and third-country nationals living in Portugal.

Our approach is simple: a real advisor on every case, transparent pricing from day one, and refusal protection when the case is within our scope. No templates, no outsourced call centres.

What makes us different

  • Real advisors, not chatbots. Each case has a named owner.
  • Transparent fees. Service fee and consular fee are quoted separately.
  • Fully online. Only in-person consulate appointments require you to leave home.
  • Refusal protection. If we missed something, we reapply at no additional charge.
