Moving to Portugal Guide

Everything You Need to Know

Your comprehensive guide to Portuguese residency, from D7 and Digital Nomad visas to citizenship paths

📱

What is the Portugal Digital Nomad Visa?

The Digital Nomad visa allows remote workers earning at least 4x the Portuguese minimum wage (approximately €3,040/month) to live in Portugal. You'll need proof of employment or self-employment from non-Portuguese sources, health insurance, and a clean criminal record.

💶

What are the D7 Visa requirements?

The D7 visa requires proving passive income (pensions, rentals, dividends) of at least €760/month (Portuguese minimum wage). You'll need health insurance, proof of accommodation, and sufficient savings. The visa is ideal for retirees and those with steady passive income.

📝

How do I apply for the D7 Visa?

The process starts at your local Portuguese consulate. You'll need bank statements showing consistent income, proof of accommodation in Portugal, health insurance, criminal record check, and other supporting documents. Processing typically takes 2-4 months.

💎

How does the Golden Visa work now?

The Golden Visa program now requires a minimum investment of €500,000 in qualifying investment funds, or creation of 10 jobs through business investment. Property investment is no longer an eligible option for Golden Visa applications.

💻

Can I work remotely on a D7 Visa?

Yes, while the D7 is primarily for passive income, remote work income can supplement your application. However, if remote work is your primary income source, the Digital Nomad visa might be more appropriate.

🌍

Can I get Portuguese citizenship?

After 5 years of legal residency, you can apply for Portuguese citizenship. Requirements include basic Portuguese language proficiency (A2 level), clean criminal record, and demonstrated links to the community.

✈️

How long can I stay outside Portugal?

For most visas, you can't be absent from Portugal for more than 6 months per year, or 8 months in special cases. For citizenship eligibility, you must maintain your tax residency and primary home in Portugal.

📅

How long does visa processing take?

Processing times vary by consulate and visa type. Digital Nomad visas typically process in 1-2 months, D7 visas in 2-4 months. After approval, you'll need to complete residency procedures in Portugal.
