    If your European passport is from an EU country, then you don’t need a work permit to work in Portugal — even for short assignments. You can live and work freely in any EU member state.

    If it’s a UK passport issued before Brexit, then it’s still a non-EU passport, so you would be treated as a third-country national. In that case, yes — the 90/180-day rule applies for stays in the Schengen Area, and working legally would normally require a Portuguese work authorization.

    Your holidays in Poland and Spain count toward the Schengen 90-day limit; your trip to India does not.

    The OP originally posted in March 2023 and hasn't logged on to MSE since May this year so probably doesn't need advice any more.
