Portuguese foreign nationals who freely acquired a third nationality cannot apply Article 5 of DL 356-A/75 to reacquire Portuguese nationality.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the appeal filed by Amad, Ruqshana against the State's refusal to grant Portuguese nationality. The applicants, former Portuguese citizens who voluntarily acquired a third nationality, argued for the application of Article 5 of DL 356-A/75 to reacquire their original citizenship. The court ruled that this specific legal provision does not apply to individuals who have freely opted for a third nationality, thereby barring their request for reacquisition.
