Golden Visa Program: A Gateway for Investors

Portugal’s Golden Visa program continues to be one of the most popular routes for investors seeking residency in the European Union. Since its inception in 2012, the program has attracted thousands of investors, primarily from China, Brazil, and the United States, contributing billions to the Portuguese economy. The program offers residency in exchange for significant investments, particularly in real estate, with the minimum investment threshold currently set at €500,000. In response to housing market concerns, the government has made recent adjustments to the Golden Visa program, focusing on promoting investment in low-density regions and interior areas of the country. These changes aim to balance the inflow of foreign investment while addressing the rising property prices in major cities like Lisbon and Porto.
