Cape Verde: Regularization Process for Foreign Nationals without Valid Status

The Ministry of Interior in Cape Verde now allows foreign nationals without valid immigration status in the country to apply to regularize their immigration status online until June 15, 2022. Eligible foreign nationals are those who were in the country without valid immigration status before December 20, 2020 and who still reside there now. Those who regularize their status by this date will not face fines or other immigration-related consequences if they are identified as having invalid immigration status. Those who do not file this application may face deportation to their countries of origin.
