It’s a new year, and the perfect time to ask: in an ever-changing world, is the Portugal Golden Visa in 2024 still the best route to an EU Citizenship? We start today’s video with a quick refresh on the Portugal Golden Visa itself, what it is, why it’s so popular with those looking for a second passport and a dual nationality, why you should choose Portugal for this (and also why you SHOULDN’T), and touch on how it differs from the alternatives that are available in Europe.

We’ll then dive into some big changes that are taking place for 2024. At the time of recording, the rules surrounding the timelines and the pathway to citizenship are in the process of being changed – a topic worth following closely. We’ll also recap the rules around qualifying investments for the Portugal Golden Visa, which have also been revised for 2024.

We’ll then review the Portugal Golden Visa in 2024 in more detail – who is it for, who is it not for, what are the alternative visas available and when should you look at those instead. Next, we’ll dive into the practicalities: the process to expect for the Golden Visa and then citizenship thereafter. To finish up, we’ll examine a critical issue: what to look out for when choosing your investment
