Algarve covid tests

I’m travelling to the algarve next week and I’m fully vaccinated. Do I need to take a test before I fly there as it is on the amber list? It says I don’t on government website if I’ve got an EU covid passport but is the uk covid passport accepted aswell?

thanks in advance!

    The Uk covid pass isn’t an EU one, so you need to look at what Portugal requires for those people that don’t have an EU pass. Last time I looked a few weeks ago Mainland Portugal required a PCR test before arrival but Madeira only required a vaccine certificate.
