Obtaining Portuguese Residence Permit through Investments allows:

Gain European Residency Status

The residence permit in Portugal gives you the right to live, work, and study anywhere in the country. This is the first step to full European integration.

Travel freely across Europe without Visas

Visa-free entry into Schengen Zone countries and free movement across Portugal's borders. Travel freely through Europe without any hassle.

Bring your family to the EU

Include your spouse and children under 18 in your application. The whole family will get residency status at the same time as the primary applicant.

Improve your social comfort

Portugal offers its residents a mild climate, rich culture, and a high level of social security. Enjoy Mediterranean life in a developed European country.

Return your investment

Your capital can be returned within 5–10 years. Investments in fund shares allow for subsequent sale while maintaining your residency status.

Benefit from tax advantages

No wealth tax or cryptocurrency tax. Entrepreneurs benefit from income tax deductions for the first 10 years of operation.

Participating in the Investment Residency Program allows:

Obtain Long-Term EU Residency Status

The residence permit is issued for 2 years with the possibility of subsequent renewal. You maintain EU residency status while meeting the program requirements.

Immigrate to the EU with minimal residency requirements

To maintain the status, it is enough to spend only 14 days in Portugal during the first two years. This allows combining European living with business in other countries.

Access European Citizenship

After 5 years of continuous residence, you gain the right to apply for Portuguese citizenship. This is a full EU passport with all associated rights.

Keep your native citizenship

Portugal allows dual citizenship, so you won't have to give up your Russian passport. You can benefit from both statuses.

Why Russian citizens choose residency in Portugal

For Russian investors and entrepreneurs aiming for European integration, Portugal is a country offering unique opportunities. One of its key advantages is a special tax regime for residents — by living in the country for at least 183 days per year and owning local property, you are exempt from paying taxes on foreign income.

Acquiring property in popular tourist areas like Algarve, Lisbon, or Porto opens up opportunities for regular passive income. Rental rates in these areas allow for returns up to 10% annually, ensuring steady capital appreciation.

Portugal successfully combines mild climate, diverse natural landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and high public safety. These factors create comfortable conditions for permanent residence and business development.
