- свидетельство из местной общины о сефардском происхождении вас/ваших предков
- свидетельство из общины Лиссабона или Порто о том же (которое дается на основании первого свидетельства и совокупности документов, какие уж есть)
- пожертвование в пользу еврейской общины Португалии 250 евро
- справка об отсутствии судимости
И все, если эти документы есть, то можно спокойно подаваться на гражданство Португалии
К сожалению, не проще.

http://www.cilisboa.org/sv_natur_en.htm на сайте общины Лиссабона написано, что надо отдать 500 евро за рассмотрение без гарантии успеха (а в случае успеха ещё 250 евро португальским властям), неплохой такой бизнес у кого-то получился:
The file opening and analysis opening fee is 500€ (five hundred Euros), non refundable in case of failing to approve the file. The payment must be done by bank transfer to the bank indicated below:
2 – Means of Proof
The evidence of Jewish Portuguese descent through family name, language, direct or collateral descent and other elements can be of direct or circumstantial nature.
The means of proof can be: circumstantial evidence, evidence by documents, testimonial proof or proof by expertise in the sense of "expertise evidence".
a) Circumstantial evidence can be presented by any means, provided that when considered isolated or in combination with direct evidence, they are considered convincing as to the validity of the claim of ties of the applicant to a Portuguese origin Sephardic Jewish community.
b) Documental evidence (direct evidence) can be presented by means of: family records, genealogical tree, community archives concerning births, marriages, deaths, cemeteries and graves lists, Brit Mila or Bar Mitzvah registers ( rituals of circumcision and religious majority respectively), governmental archives showing arrivals from Portugal, ships passenger's lists and passengers arriving from Portugal.
c) Testimonial evidence, that is to say, depositions of witnesses who may attest a family's oral tradition. Testimonial evidence must be presented in writing as written affidavit, signed by the witnesses and certified/authenticated by a solicitor. The written depositions or affidavit have to be sent and addressed to the Lisbon Jewish Community, together with the witnesses' authenticated copies of passports or authenticated copies of identification documents. The witnesses themselves have to be credible and their affidavits or depositions convincing.
d) The expertise evidence, that is to say, the opinion of a specialist / expert in Portuguese Jewish Diaspora. The expertise evidence must be presented in writing. The Portuguese Diaspora specialist's reports or opinions must be presented in writing and signed by the expert / specialist in question, with his / her biographic resume and the authenticated signature by a solicitor.

Factors that will be taken into account in interpreting the spirit and letter of the law
1 – The law requires a traditional connection to a Sephardic Community of Portuguese origin, which means that there must still exist today an emotional connection to that distant time, preserved over the centuries in family traditions, memories, heirlooms or language.
2 – The law intends to cover not all descendants of Portuguese Sephardic Jews, but only those who retain the status of Jews in the light of Halacha and, in special cases, non-Jews whose parents were Sephardic Jews, and descendants of Portuguese Jews whose families had for a long time been distanced from the official chain of Judaism, but that later came to renew their ties with Judaism through an Orthodox Beth Din and Halacha, which is the same.
3 – The basic questions in the certification process are the following: whether the applicants are Jews in the light of the Halacha; whether the candidates are Sephardim or descendants of Sephardim; whether the candidates are of Portuguese origin. The first two questions must be affirmatively answered by the local Orthodox Rabbinates and, ultimately, by the Orthodox Rabbinate of Porto, recognized by the Chief Rabbinate of Israel. Finally, the Portuguese origin of the candidate must be determined.
Proof of Judaism -- The applicant for Portuguese nationality must be Jewish in accordance with halacha or have at least one Jewish parent, without which it is not possible to claim a emotional and traditional connection with the former Portuguese Sephardic Community. (Proofs - Certificate of a Chief Rabbi, letter of an orthodox Rabbi recognized by organizations with halachic credibility, teudat nisuin of the parents, ketubah, membership of and orthodox Community, etc.)
Так что мало быть потомком Сефардов и умудриться доказать это через двадцать поколений, надо быть Сефардом именно из Португалии и надо быть ещё и евреем в самом ортодоксальном смысле.
