• The Autenticação.Gov plugin (available at https://autenticacao.gov.pt/fa/ajuda/autenticacaogovpt.aspx ) and the software for using the Citizen Card (available at  https://www.autenticacao.gov.pt/cc-aplicacao ) have been installed on the computer .

To authenticate using the Digital Mobile Key, you must first request a key. You can find information regarding the Digital Mobile Key request and the authentication process at  https://www.autenticacao.gov.pt/a-chave-movel-digital .

For automatic filling of your student's identification data in the registration form, you can use their citizen card with address PIN. Although not mandatory for registration, an application to read PDF documents may be necessary, as this is the format of the supporting documents issued by the Registration Portal. If you do not have one, you can install, for example, Adobe Acrobat Reader (available at  https://get.adobe.com/br/reader/ ).
