Introduction of Portuguese Immigrants' Investment: 202 1 Has Portugal changed its requirements for investing in immigrant projects?

There have indeed been some changes in the matter of Portuguese investment immigration. Let me analyze the policy changes after 202 1.

According to the original Portuguese gold residence policy, the affiliated applicants of the gold visa can only be the spouse of the main applicant and unmarried children under 18. If the child has reached 18, it is necessary to meet three conditions: unmarried, attending full-time schools in Spain, and financially dependent on parents. According to the new policy, from July 1 day, 20265438, children aged 18 can apply as long as they are studying at school.

According to 202 1 Portugal's new investment immigration policy, the Portuguese authorities must approve the first application within 90 days and reply to the renewal application within 60 days. This measure has effectively urged the relevant departments to ensure or even improve the efficiency of examination and approval, and also allowed many applicants to have time guarantee while waiting for visa examination and approval, and they are no longer helpless in the face of uncertain examination and approval time.

In addition to the original application channels for house purchase, deposit and business start-up, Portugal's golden housing project has also added four application channels, including the investment of more than 350,000 euros for old houses or renovated houses built 30 years ago; You can invest more than 350 thousand euros in public or private research centers in Portugal; Can invest more than 250 thousand euros in artistic creation projects and national heritage restoration or maintenance projects; You can also invest in funds or venture capital funds; You can even invest more than 500,000 euros to help Portuguese SMEs.

Note: The gold residence policy of 202 1 Portugal has changed greatly. Although the applications in some areas have been cancelled, the conditions have been relaxed, and the restrictions on trial time under the epidemic situation have also made investors feel more at ease.
