Hi everyone,

Depends on which consulate you are applying to, but generally AirBnB or other Alojamento agreements do not work. You need a 12 month lease that is registered with Finanças, proving the landlord is paying taxes.

Thanks for comments.
Two more queries regarding the start of rent agreement; If I am planning to apply by January 2023, the agreement will start from which month( As 3-6 months are the processing time).
Secondly, can any agency will help in getting the rent agreement done?
