What's available

Amazon Prime Video in Portugal gives you access to a solid library of original and licensed content. You can stream Amazon Originals like The Boys, Reacher, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Rings of Power, and Jack Ryan. On the film side, you'll find recent additions like Air, Saltburn, and Road House (2024). Portuguese and European licensed content is also present, giving local viewers some regional variety.

What you're missing

The Portuguese library is noticeably smaller than the US version. Several titles available in the US are geo-blocked in Portugal, including:

  • A League of Their Own (series)
  • Hunters
  • Fleabag (limited availability)
  • A large portion of the licensed film catalogue, including many classic Hollywood titles
  • Select sports content through Prime Video Channels that isn't offered in your region

Licensing deals mean studios often restrict content country by country, so Portugal regularly gets a stripped-down version compared to the US or UK libraries.

How to access other regions

You can unlock the full US or UK Amazon Prime Video library by using a VPN. A VPN masks your real location and assigns you an IP address from another country. Here's how to do it:

  • Subscribe to a reliable VPN service — we recommend NordVPN as the top choice for streaming
  • Connect to a US server for the largest Amazon Prime Video library
  • Open Amazon Prime Video and browse the expanded catalogue
  • Try a UK server if you want access to specific British content not on the US platform

NordVPN works consistently with Amazon Prime Video and offers fast speeds that keep buffering to a minimum.

Pricing

Amazon Prime Video in Portugal is available as part of an Amazon Prime subscription, currently priced at around €3.99 per month or €36.99 per year. You can also subscribe to Prime Video standalone for approximately €2.99 per month. Pricing is subject to change, so check the Amazon Portugal website for the latest rates.

Our recommendation

Amazon Prime Video in Portugal is worth subscribing to for the Originals alone — Reacher, The Boys, and Rings of Power justify the low monthly cost. However, if you want the complete experience, pair your subscription with NordVPN and connect to a US server. You'll immediately unlock a much wider film and TV catalogue without paying anything extra beyond the VPN cost.
