About the Portuguese Language

Brazilian and European Portuguese are different enough that using the wrong variant on an IRCC or court submission can cause problems. Portuguese has around 260 million speakers - about 80% in Brazil, the rest mainly in Portugal, Angola, Mozambique, and Cape Verde. We match each project to the right variant: European Portuguese for Canada's large heritage community and Portuguese-government documents, Brazilian Portuguese for the fast-growing flow of Brazilian study-permit and permanent-residence applications. The two share an alphabet but have distinct legal vocabulary, spelling conventions, and signature blocks. Canada's major Portuguese-speaking communities sit in Toronto (Little Portugal), Montreal, Hamilton, and across southern Ontario.

  • Primary regions: Brazil, Portugal, Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde and Portuguese-Canadian and Brazilian communities across Canada
  • Language origin / family: Indo-European, Romance language family
  • Estimated speakers: Around 260 million speakers worldwide
