If you are a Portuguese citizen or resident with a valid work permit, you can generally work in other Schengen countries. However, if you are a worker "posted" from Portugal by your employer to another EU/EEA country, or if you are a self-employed person going to another EU/EEA country for a temporary period, you may need an A1 certificate.
What is an A1 Certificate?
The A1 certificate is a document that confirms a worker remains subject to the social security legislation of their home country (in this case, Portugal) while temporarily working in another EU/EEA country or Switzerland. Its purpose is to prevent workers from having to pay social security contributions in two different countries.
How to get an A1 Certificate in Portugal:
The A1 certificate is issued by the Social Security institution in Portugal. Employers can request it through the Social Security Direct portal under the "Employment Posting a worker abroad" menu.
Important Note: The A1 certificate is for "posted" workers or self-employed individuals temporarily working abroad. It does not replace a work visa or residence permit if you are a non-EU/EEA citizen. If you are a Portuguese citizen, you have the right to live and work in other EU/EEA countries without a visa, but the A1 certificate is still relevant for social security purposes.
Job Hunting in Other Schengen Countries:
As a Portuguese citizen, you have the right to work in any other EU/EEA country. You can use various online job portals and professional networks like LinkedIn to search for jobs. Some countries may also have specific "job seeker visas" for non-EU citizens, but as a Portuguese citizen, you do not need one to look for work in another EU/EEA country
