What every traveller needs to know

  • A valid passport is required for UK and other non-EU travellers, even though Madeira is part of Portugal and the EU โ€” check that it is valid well beyond your planned departure.
  • Most visa-exempt travellers can stay in the Schengen Area, including Madeira, for up to 90 days in any 180-day period without a visa.
  • Border officials can ask visa-exempt visitors to show proof of sufficient funds and valid travel or health insurance.
  • Travellers who need a visa must apply in advance at the nearest Portuguese consulate โ€” confirm requirements on the official site before booking flights.

Always verify current requirements on the official Portuguese immigration and Schengen portals before booking flights โ€” rules can change. travel.state.gov ยท canada.ca
