what is PORTUGAL GOLDEN VISA
The Portugal Golden Visa Program is a five-year residence-by-investment program for non-EU citizens. The program permits investors to study, work, and live in Portugal and have visa-free access to other EU countries.
After five years, investors can apply for citizenship and live, work, and study anywhere in the European Union.
