Portugal State Of Emergency official Decree

For anyone based in Portugal, please see below link to the Safe Communities Portugal website whereby they have produced an English version of the Decree that will be in force from midnight tonight (21st March) There’s been a bit of confusion as to what are the finer details of the measures that were rolled out post the State Of Emergency being announced on Wednesday. In essence, it is what we already knew but adds some specificity in the Annexes.

For the vast majority of the population it basically means: stay indoors, only venture out for the essentials and be sensible.

If you are over 70 / of poor health as listed in Article 4 or have been identified by the authorities as under surveillance they are more stringent rules as outlined in the decree.

Stay safe
