Get EU passports for your family with Portugal's Golden Visa
The Portugal Golden Visa is one of the quickest and simplest ways to achieve a European citizenship. By investing in a qualifying Portuguese investment fund, you will receive the right to live, work, and study in Portugal – and enjoy visa-free travel across Europe’s Schengen Area.
After 5 years, you can qualify for Portuguese citizenship and a full European passport. Almost the entire process is remote, and you only need to spend an average of 7 days per year in Portugal to qualify.
My team and I have handled over 10% of all Golden Visas ever issued in Portugal, with over 1000 applications submitted (at a 100% success rate).
How the Portugal Golden Visa works
Select investment
We offer exclusive, innovative investment options with capital requirements starting at just €325,000. As experienced international wealth managers, we are well-placed to build and manage the perfect investment structure for your Golden Visa, managing the risk and ensuring strong returns.
Get residency
After making the investment, we will obtain your Golden Visa residence permit. You will now have the legal right to live in Portugal and travel anywhere in the EU. You can either live in Portugal or remain in your home country, and you do not have to become tax resident. Physical stay requirements in Portugal are just 1 week per year.
Get your passports
After 5 years, take a basic Portuguese language test and apply for your second passports. You and your family are now permanent citizens of Portugal with the right to live, work, study and retire anywhere in the European Union. These benefits can also be passed down to future generations.

Featured Portugal Golden Visa Investment (2025)
Whilst we offer a variety of qualifying Portugal Golden Visa investment options to choose from, some cases warrant special attention. Not all investments are the same, and the below is a qualifying Golden Visa investment that is exclusive to our team. We feel it offers the strongest case available in the market by some distance.
Working in partnership with our long-standing partners in the country, we have designed an investment case that qualifies for the Golden Visa whilst still delivering high transparency, strong returns, a low-cost structure, a tightly controlled exposure to risk and a flexible exit strategy. Many Golden Visa investment options in Portugal are only available with lengthy tie-in periods, high exposure to volatility and an aggressive fee structure – all of which we have looked to eliminate when building this investment case.
