RESIDENTS IN PORTUGAL CAN ALSO REQUEST THE CHAVE MÓVEL DIGITAL (CMD)
The Chave Móvel Digital (CMD) can be requested by Portuguese and residents to carry out online services.
The Chave Móvel Digital (CMD), created in 2014, is a secure mean of authentication to prove identity, allowing users, Portuguese or residents, to access various public and private portals, as well as digitally sign documents.
Residents can activate the CMD with their Passport or with their permit or residence card, associating a mobile phone number. To activate the CMD with the permit or residence card you also will need to have a NIF (Portuguese tax number).
CMD requests can be made in one of the Espaços Cidadão network counters (the citizen shops in each Municipality)
You can find your local citizen shop here
