==Record Offices==
For addresses of district civi registration offices, see [[Civil Registration Offices in Portugal]].<br>
<br>
Civil birth, marriage, and death records are initially stored at the Civil Registry (''Conservatória do Registro Civil'').
*After 100 years, birth records are sent to district archives.
*After 50 years, marriage records are sent to district archives.
*After 30 years, death records are sent to district archives.<ref>João Ventura, “Parish Books and Civil Registry,” on ''Tombo.pt'', http://tombo.pt/en/node/15269.</ref>
In 1832, the Portuguese government passed legislation requiring the births, marriages, and deaths of all residents to be recorded at the local civil registry. Before this legislation, only churches recorded such information. Civil registration was first instituted as a way for non-Catholic individuals to register their births, marriages, and deaths, while Catholic priests acted as the civil register for the members of their parish. However, this system didn't come into effect until 1878.<ref>Cheri Mello, “Finding Your Portuguese Roots: Tracing with Portuguese Records,” on ''PortugueseAncestry.com'', http://www.portugueseancestry.com/LWI/genealogy/gendoc/searching3.cfm.</ref><ref name="profile">The Family History Department of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, “Family History Record Profile: Portugal,” Word document, private files of the FamilySearch Content Strategy Team, 1986-1999.</ref>


With the formation of the First Portuguese Republic in 1910, Civil registration changed drastically. From 1911 onwards, all residents were required to have their vital events recorded in the civil registrar, regardless if this information was also recorded in their church's parish.
