Under Portuguese law, IMT theory exam candidates need to request a certified translator to translate their test if they don't want to proceed in Portuguese. The translator will translate the test to English.
Only translators specifically approved by the IMT may conduct these translations. This is a formal, legally recognised process — not an informal arrangement. There is no minimum Portuguese language requirement to obtain a Portuguese driving licence.
