Since Brexit ended free movement, Portuguese nationals wishing to work in the UK beyond a short visit now generally need a Skilled Worker visa requiring a SELT, alongside family visa applicants joining a partner or spouse already in the UK. Portuguese nationals with settled or pre-settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme do not need a SELT.
Portuguese and English share many Latin-root words, which helps vocabulary recognition, but Portuguese's nasal vowel sounds and verb conjugation system commonly carry over into English pronunciation and tense use in ways that need targeted correction.
