Information on this blog applies when you move to a different EU member state, so for instance to Spain or Germany or the UK. Then it is easy for most of your relatives ( see https://eumovement.wordpress.com/2008/04/22/definition-of-family-member/ ) to come. Son of 21 is right on the border, and it depends if he is dependent on you.
I do not know about portugese law.
Hi,
I’m a Portugese passport holder and have lived in the UK. My wife holds a Indian passport has Residence card of a Family Member of an EEA National Visa for 5 year. We are planning a one week trip to Portugal in January 2015.Does my wife need an Portugese visa for this short trip or can she travel with me as long as we carry a copy of our marriage certificate?as well as does we require hotel accomodation proof & travel insurance?
Pls do the needful.
