Why Portugal, why now

An EU foothold, without an investment minimum.

The D2 visa lets entrepreneurs and the self-employed open a business in Portugal and apply for residency — no fixed capital requirement, no job-creation quota. What matters is a credible, well-built business plan.

Questions

Good to know before you start.

Do I need to invest a fixed amount of money?

No. The D2 visa has no fixed investment minimum, unlike the Golden Visa. What matters is a credible business plan and proof you can support yourself in Portugal.

Do you give investment or tax advice?

No. We provide general information on business immigration options and manage the practical process. For investment, tax, or legal advice specific to your situation, we work alongside our licensed lawyer and accountant partners.

How long does the whole process take?

Typically 4–8 months from application to a visa decision, depending on consulate processing times, plus time to prepare your business plan.

Can my family come with me?

Yes, the D2 visa allows family reunification for spouses and dependent children. We'll cover this in your initial consultation.
