Frequently Asked Questions for Clients
Can I still invest in real estate for the Golden Visa?
No, as of the latest law changes, residential and commercial real estate investments no longer qualify for the Golden Visa. Our services focus exclusively on the now-mandatory Fund Investment and Cultural/Scientific pathways.
What are the government fees?
The government charges an initial application fee and a residency card issuance fee (currently around €5,325 per person). We provide a full transparent breakdown of all costs before you begin.
Do I need to speak Portuguese?
Not for the residency phase. However, to obtain citizenship after five years, a basic A2 level of Portuguese is required. We can connect you with language resources as part of our long-term support.
