WorldWay reports: Following the corruption incident involving the head of the Portuguese Immigration Authority, various rumors regarding Portugal's golden immigration have been rampant. Meanwhile, Portugal's Minister of Finance, Maria Luís, stated in the European Parliament that the Golden Immigration Policy is beneficial for the country, but will simultaneously strengthen regulation, and the policy could be adjusted at any time but will not be halted. This means that the Golden Residence Permit Policy will be stricter, possibly requiring proof of legitimate sources of funds, and prospective immigrant clients should plan early.
Portuguese lawyers remind that the government's strengthened regulation of the Golden Immigration Policy may manifest itself in the requirement for immigrants to provide proof of legitimate sources of funds during the documentation review process. The policy stipulates that non-EU citizens may purchase real estate in Portugal for €500,000 or more, and can immigrate to Portugal as a family, without needing to provide proof of asset sources.
Meanwhile, we understand that in future golden immigration applications, there may be a need to provide more documentation, as Portugal will have stricter requirements for application documents; thus, families wishing to immigrate should submit their applications as soon as possible.
