Portugal has a prime location, offering the perfect point of entry to access to the European market. As a member of the European Union, Portugal has a strong economy while also enjoying the benefits of the single market and the freedom of movement, goods, and services. Portugal has strong international relations with other countries, such as China, India, Israel, the United States, the United Kingdom, among many others.
Portugal’s exceptional standing is not just international. The country has a stable political scenario and consistently ranks among the safest in the world.

The country has a strong ecological Policy, having one of the cleanest airs in Europe, together with a substantiable environment. Portugal also consistently produces highly skilled workers, a result of the country’s deep focus on education. It is no wonder Portuguese schools and universities are often found on the ranks of the best in Europe.
This is also reflected in the population’s English-speaking capabilities, further easing the integration of the business in the country and increasing profitability. Combining this with the arguably lower cost of living in Portugal, there is no shortage of reasons why Portugal is the perfect location, offering nothing but advantages to grow and branch out a business.
The process can be done entirely online. When it is first issued, the D2 visa has a validity of four months. During this period, the investor, or their chosen representative with power of attorney, must schedule an appointment in order to convert it into a Residency Permit. This Permit has a validity of 1 year and must be consecutively renewed up until the fifth-year mark. At that time, the applicant(s) are eligible to become Permanent Residents or Citizens.
