Yes. U.S. citizens are eligible for Portugal residency programs, including the Golden Visa, subject to government criteria.

Yes! Portugal offers one of the most straightforward paths to EU citizenship.

After 5 years of legal residency, you can apply for Portuguese citizenship — with no requirement to renounce your U.S. citizenship.

Yes, and that’s how it’s typically done. You’ll apply through your local Portuguese consulate while still in your home country. We walk you through each step remotely.

It depends on the visa:

• D7, D8, and D2 require you to live in Portugal most of the year (at least 183 days).

• Golden Visa allows more flexibility — just 7 days per year of physical presence is required.

Most visa types (D7, D8, D2) take between 60 to 90 days from the time of application at a Portuguese consulate. However, timelines vary by location and volume. We help ensure your application is complete and submitted correctly to avoid delays.

Not initially. Many expats get by with English, especially in Lisbon, Porto, and coastal towns. However, basic Portuguese is helpful for everyday life — and eventually required for citizenship.

Absolutely. All major visas (D7, D8, D2, Golden Visa) allow for family reunification, meaning you can apply for your spouse, children, or even dependent parents to come with you under your visa.

We coordinate closely with licensed Portuguese immigration lawyers as part of our structured advisory process.
