Official wording

Cabo Verde (60 até 120 dias por ano)

Aevamo’s reading

Lei 5/2015 amends article 25 of the aliens law to create the visa-free categories (CPLP, EU, USA, Canada), the 15-day stay for holders of a valid Schengen or US visa, and the delegation under which the Government lists third countries exempt for up to 15 days. It is the instrument that CREATES the visa-free obligation; the SMF article and the 2017 decree/note describe or implement it.

The SMF states Cabo Verde is exempt by cooperation agreement for 60 to 120 days per year; the row asserts the upper bound (120 days per year), which governs the day counter over Cabo Verde's 15-day CPLP entitlement.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions

Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
