GOLDEN VISA
The big difference between the Golden Visa and the other Portuguese visas is the question of the length of stay in Portugal. With the “common” visas, you need to reside in Portugal for at least 4 months per year. With the Golden Visa, you only need to stay 7 days per year.
After 5 years of investment, you acquire the right to request Portuguese Nationality by “residence” time.
The Golden Visa procedure is done almost entirely in Portugal.
