What it is

This is IRN Form 6.3 for the naturalisation of stateless persons with legal residence in Portugal. The absence of any nationality is the central feature of the application. It should not be used by anyone who holds another nationality, even if they do not use it, and the form does not guarantee the outcome.

The assistant explains; it does not fill in or submit anything on your behalf. Do not type passwords or third parties' data.

Things to note

The form comes blank: the applicant fills it in and signs it. The registry office may require proof of statelessness and of residence, so it is advisable to confirm this. We do not submit the application or guarantee approval.

Frequently asked questions

How do I prove that I am stateless?

There are documents the registry office accepts for this purpose. Please ask them which ones, as Titus Docs does not assess your proof.

What is the difference from Form 6.1?

Form 6.1 is for naturalisation through legal residence in general. Form 6.3 is for people who, in addition to residing legally, have no nationality at all.
