Thank you for your freedom of information request.

Census 2021 dataset TS013 details how many people hold a Portuguese passport by Upper Tier Local Authority and Lower Tier Local Authority (Counties and Districts) in England and Wales. Please see the associated download for this information.

The second tab on the associated download, named 'Filtered TS013 - Passports held', provides TS103 dataset filtered to show the Local Authorities with the highest percentage of Portuguese passports.
