Answer 1

the link that you have added in your question is not valid, i tried it,

you need to get in touch with the Portuguese consulate in the UK,

they have consular services, and that is where you will receive a birth certificate from;

here is the addresss below, addres them a letter, requesting a birth certificate,unfortunately they do not have a web page, so you will may either call them or write,

all consulates have more than one speaking language:

here is the address:

Portuguese Consulate in Jersey, United Kingdom    

Consulate of Portugal in Jersey, United Kingdom      

Burlington House

St. Saviours Road, St. Helier

Jersey C.I. JE2 4LA

United Kingdom

City: Jersey

Phone: [phone]

Fax: [phone]

Office Hours: 14.00-17.00

there might be a fee,unless you are already registered with them as a Portuguese leaving in the UK already? consulates are there to provide services to people leaving in other countries,

if you need more help? please come back to your question.

Answer 2

If you already have a Portuguese ID you don't need your birth certificate. All you have to do is either show your Portuguese passport or your ID in the Embassy or Consulate. They should accept  either form of identification. BTW, if you are going to renew your ID, it means that your citizenship as Portuguese has already been revised, you shouldn't need your birth certificate to prove it.

Answer 3

you can`t get birth certificate online as it must be stamped. If you send email to the city council of where you born they can mail you to your address..
