If you would like to get your passport back in the Azores and/or Madeira islands please note that on the day of your in-person visa interview, you must bring:

• A local Post Office CTT “Correio Verde” pre-paid, pre-addressed envelope;
• All required documents.

Use the local Post Office CTT to purchase and complete:

• A pre-paid “Correio Verde” envelope (no other envelope is accepted);
• The size of the envelope must fit the size and number of the documents to be returned;
• A complete registration form and stamps for 2.20€.

The envelope is pre-paid “Correio Verde”. However, the additional registration form and stamps are mandatory so that we may return your passport to you if you are approved, by registered mail. We will not mail your passport without these items.

Please note that you must pre-address the envelope with your name and address.

If you are not approved, your passport, the envelope, and stamps will be returned to you at the end of the interview.
