Portugal Golden Visa Program

Residency by Investment

Portugal Immigration

As an EU member state, Portugal offers a high standard of living in terms of work, healthcare, climate, infrastructure, stability, safety, and education. One of Europe’s oldest countries, Portugal boasts a rich historical and architectural heritage.

Luminosity, radiance and culture beam through the white washed villages and lush vineyards of this country positioned on the blissfully elegant shores of the Atlantic Ocean. Portugal’s quality of life is a big draw for those looking to reside in or become a citizen of a European country.

The Portugal Golden Visa program, also known as the residence permit for investment activity (ARI), is a residency by investment scheme designed for non-EU citizens.

Portugal launched the program in October 2012. The main objective was to attract international capital into the country, as it was much in need after the 2008 economic crisis. The program proved to be a great success, raising over €6 billion since then.
