In the Standard Model(SM), neutrinos are described in terms of massless left handed fermions, however the observation of neutrino flavor oscillations indicates non vanishing neutrino masses. This is an incentive for new physics beyond the standard model. One approach to explain neutrino masses is known as dimension-5 seesaw portal, in which the SM Lagrangian is modified using a combination of type I Seesaw and dimension five effective operators. The objective of this work is to derive formulae to compute the three-body decay of heavy neutrinos in a dimension-5 seesaw portal that adds three right handed Majorana neutrinos with masses in the GeV range to the SM. After obtaining the various formulae we plotted the results to analyze the relevance of each term, and found that the removal of the contribution of all terms coming from the three-body decays with dimension five operators only reduce the decay length by a few percent < 6% of the total decay length. Although the inclusion of these terms is necessary for an accurate result, it is possible to exclude them form calculations if precision is not of the utmost importance.
