AIMA published on November 29, 2025 new official guidance standardizing the documents required across common scenarios. Property owners need a permanent property certificate and sworn statement.

If your name is not on the contract, you must submit a detailed sworn statement with criminal liability declaration plus a Tax Domicile Certificate issued less than 30 days before submission. Students have specific options including certified statements from educational establishments. Important: certificates from Parish Councils (Juntas de Freguesia) are no longer accepted.
