The Loja do Cidadão da Madeira already has several services with direct access to the counters, without users having to wait in line and speeding up the service in that space.
According to a note sent by the vice presidency to the newsrooms, these services are NOS Madeira; Madeira Electricity Company; Funchal City Hall – Waters; Education; Housing Investments in Madeira (HMI – Housing); Altice – Meo; Driving licenses; Regional Directorate of Labor and Inspective Action; Criminal record; Consumer defense; Passports; Tax Authority – Finance; and Madeira Waters and Waste – ARM – Waters.
Thus, if the citizens who go to the store find a queue outside the Citizen’s Store, this does not mean that the service they want is congested or that they have no response capacity.
Before giving up or standing in line, make sure the desired service has direct entry or not. Inquire on the spot. If it is one of these services that we list, you will no longer have to queue outside.
However, it is no longer necessary to schedule appointments at the services of the Regional Directorate for the Administration of Justice, in particular for issues related to the Citizen Card, which may also be in person.
Without prejudice to the possibility of prior scheduling, which is given priority and which must be formalized by email or telephone, face-to-face service at the services of the Regional Directorate for Justice Administration (DRAJ) at Loja do Cidadão da Madeira from 00:00 onwards next July 13, it will be provided on a direct entry basis, and therefore without the need for prior appointment or scheduling.
The appointment or scheduling can be done by email, [email protected] or by phone, Civil Identification Office (Citizen Card): 291 212 203, Certificates Office: 291 212 206 and Car Registration Support Office: 291 212 204.
With regard to face-to-face service at the Civil, Building, Commercial and Automobile Registry offices existing in all the municipalities of Madeira, prior appointment is mandatory for the practice of any act.
