The decision was taken on 22 October in the Council of Ministers and announced by the Minister of the Presidency, Mariana Viera da Silva.
"Each citizen cannot move between municipalities, as happened in the past", revealed the minister, explaining that the measure goes into effect between 00:00 on 30 October and 3 November.
The decision to limit the circulation comes a week after the Council of Ministers announced the return of the state of calamity to Portugal.
Mariana Vieira da Silva also announced that the 2 November will be marked as a national day of mourning to pay tribute to all the deceased and victims of the covid-19 pandemic.

The government is working really hard on destroying even the domestic tourism. Voters will hopefully know what to do come the next election.

What is the point of this exercise.
Total embarrassment of Portugal resorting to such pointless draconian measure that serves no purpose other than to instill fear amongst the population.
Insult.

I am due to fly home to the UK on the 31st October from Faro, How am I expected to get to the airport from Albufeira? Are all tourists to be grounded and loose the flights?

On what grounds is it permitted to travel outside your area?

I am assuming i can drive to Faro airport to pick up my wife. For health reasons she cannot use taxis or public transport. I will not enter the airport terminal.

Stupid question, but how does this effect non-citenzens? I'd have to drive up to Lisboa on the 30th to catch my flight back home on the 31st :(

I'm in the Alcobaça concelho and need to pick up a passenger from the UK who is a Portuguese resident. Can I still do so?

"Why ?"
Draconian measures that make "Zero" sense.
Cringe worthy beyond any form of comprehension.
By Ricardo Sousa from Lisbon on 26 Oct 2020, 11:55
we dont need more mindless tourists during this time, dont bring more Covid from your own countries which are way worse than Portugal! Portugal should lock the borders for foreigners, hard times require hard measures!
By Ze from Lisbon on 27 Oct 2020, 15:19
Isn't this all illegal ?
Having read the constitution , these authoritarian / draconian measures seem patently unconstitutional.

I wrote to costa offering me services to go where his cowardly medics refused to go - a few days after I read about it. (in AUGUST)
I guess he's still thinking about it
You really could not make up this farrago
It just gets worse.
We have to do something
if we dont
it will get worse
and worse
until we call this
prison planet
