Course Description

Portugal's Golden Visa, officially the ARI (Autorização de Residência para Atividade de Investimento), underwent significant policy reform in 2023 and 2024, closing direct residential real estate as a qualifying route. This course is fully updated to reflect the current eligible investment routes including venture capital funds, research activities, and cultural contributions. You will learn the end to end process from investment selection to citizenship eligibility. Ideal for consultants and advisors helping clients secure EU residency and a pathway to Portuguese citizenship through compliant investment.
