The remainder of the sentence in the video was “until the end of the year” which of course, was 31/12/23. Friends of ours were told the same but I don’t know the rationale behind the statement.

Hmm be careful I have friends with £10,000 fines and bans, although not from Portugal.

Agreed. The friends I referred to in #2 got it confirmed on the spot by email. In Vila Real de Santo Antonio IIRC.

Due to the closure of SEF and the transfer of immigration business in Portugal to a new government department, the government put some extensions on some of the brexit driven deadlines that had previously been set. I suspect that the statement was in relation to those temporary extensions. It's now 2024 of course and Schengen controls are very much in force.

I flew back early December and Brits without residence were having passports stamped so would assume 90 days limit stands as normal.

Bit of thread drift. Way back (about 2008) I was alongside in North Haven, Fair Isle, when the boat "Fair Isle" came in. At that time she was under the German flag, owned by a couple from Berlin. As I had moved my somewhat smaller boat off the pier then berthed outside them I was invited on board, and enjoyed a very pleasant evening.
