Watch Internacional Online
Internacional is the international television service of Rádio e Televisão de Portugal, the Portuguese public broadcaster.2 It shows a mix of programming from its domestic channels, together with special programmes aimed at Portuguese migrant communities spread across Europe, Africa, South America, North America, and beyond.2 Viewers abroad in June 2026 can access Internacional live, free, and legally through Play, the broadcaster's own streaming platform.
The Official Free Route: Play
The simplest and most reliable way to watch Internacional live is through Play, the broadcaster's own streaming platform.14 The live stream of Mundo — as Internacional is now branded — is available directly at rtp.pt, offering the channel's full live broadcast with the best news, entertainment, and drama to keep you connected to Portugal.14
Play is available as a mobile app on Android devices and can be downloaded from Google Play, Google's app store for Android devices.16 The app gives access to more than 20 live broadcasts, alongside series, films, documentaries, sports, and news — all with no additional costs and no registration required.16 It works across multiple screens, including mobile phones, tablets, Android, Apple, and even in the car via CarPlay, Apple's system for using supported iPhone apps through a vehicle display, or Android Auto, Google's system for using supported Android apps in a vehicle.16
No Subscription Needed
Play brings quality content to viewers free and unlimited, covering series, news, culture, and entertainment all in one place.16 The platform is multiplatform, so whether you are at home or on the move, access is consistent and straightforward.16 Some content does carry viewing restrictions depending on broadcast rights for certain territories, so availability of individual programmes may vary.16
Watching from Luxembourg
For viewers based in Luxembourg, the platform is accessible and offers RTP1 and RTP2, Portuguese television channels, together with Internacional, live and on demand, making it the go-to free option for Portuguese-speaking residents there.5 Luxembourg's particularly international population — accustomed to consuming content in multiple languages including Portuguese — has reliable access to these streams.
Internacional and Major Sports
Internacional carries major sporting events as a free-to-air broadcaster, meaning viewers can receive its broadcasts without a paid television subscription. All of Portugal's matches at the 2026 World Cup, the international football tournament, will be shown on the free-to-air national broadcaster. Viewers in Portugal can follow Portugal's entire World Cup campaign without a paid subscription through the broadcaster's free-to-air channels. Sport coverage and tournament broadcasting have been finalised across Portugal.
What to Watch Next
Internacional — now carrying the Mundo branding — is a state-owned public broadcaster channel, free-to-air by nature and committed to reaching the Portuguese diaspora worldwide.5
