There are three separate documents. The carta de caçador is the card proving you passed the ICNF hunting exam. The licença de caça is the annual licence that lets you hunt in a given season. The licença de uso e porte de armas (LUPA) is issued by the PSP and is what allows you to own and use a firearm. Hunting with a shotgun or rifle means holding all three.

Portuguese law (Lei n.º 5/2006, de 23 de fevereiro) defines the following classes: Class A - prohibited weapons (automatic, military). Class B - restricted defense weapons, require special authorization. Class B1 - personal defense weapons (pistols and revolvers), require justified need. Class C - rifled-barrel hunting weapons (rifles). Class D - smooth-bore hunting weapons (shotguns). Class E - recreational weapons, air guns, and alarm guns. Class F - collectible and historical weapons.
With license (Class B1): pistols and revolvers require a LUPA B1 license and a justified need submitted to the PSP. With license (Class E): defensive sprays and electric weapons (tasers) require a LUPA E license, which requires justification. LUPA holders of categories C or D (hunting) automatically have access to Class E weapons.

Yes, both are classified as Class E weapons. To purchase them you need a LUPA E license (which requires justification) or a LUPA C or D (hunting), which gives automatic access to Class E. Misuse outside of legitimate self-defense is punishable by law.
