| Overdue decision — legal remedy to compel a decision | If a consular post (visa) or AIMA (residence permit) does not decide within the legal deadline, the applicant can go to the administrative courts to compel a decision — via the urgent "intimação para proteção de direitos, liberdades e garantias" (CPTA Arts. 109.º–111.º) or the ordinary action to condemn the authority to issue the omitted act (CPTA Arts. 66.º–67.º). Administrative silence does NOT grant the visa/permit — it is a breach of the duty to decide, which opens the court remedy. |
