Golden Visa
Portugal’s Golden Visa Has Changed – Here’s What You Need to Know
As of October 2023, Portugal has updated its Golden Visa programme. You can no longer apply by investing in real estate — not even through property funds.
But don’t worry — the Golden Visa is still available! Portugal is now focusing on smart, future-driven investments that support innovation, culture, and job creation.
Here are the main ways you can qualify:
Invest €500,000 or more in approved investment funds (not related to property)
Create at least 10 jobs in Portugal
Invest €500,000 or more in scientific or tech research

These changes are part of Portugal’s commitment to building a strong, sustainable economy.
