In Portugal, Indian Migrants Face a Costly Fight to Halt Deportation: Court Fee ₹70,000, Lawyer Fee Over ₹1,00,000—Community Raises Alarm.

Lisbon/Portugal. Members of the Indian community say that seeking a temporary stay on deportation in Portugal is becoming prohibitively expensive—around ₹70,000 in court fees, plus over ₹1,00,000 in legal fees in many cases. Community representatives estimate that approximately 13,500 Indians are caught in administrative and legal uncertainty. Families describe the burden as crushing, alleging that law-abiding migrants are being worn down by high costs and lengthy procedures. At the same time, government agencies and the Indian Embassy have not stepped in strongly enough to help.
