In recent years, with the relaxation of European investment immigration policies, Portugal has emerged as a dark horse among numerous European investment immigration programs, thanks to the advantage of obtaining family immigration through the purchase of 500,000 euros in real estate. Immigrating to Portugal with the whole family to enjoy conveniences in work, study, medical care, travel, and business has become easy and simple.
Investment immigration has always been a way of immigrating that closely follows national policies. Since the launch of the "Golden Residence Permit Program," Portugal has quickly become a focus of attention for investors. For this reason, presidential elections have always been a focal point for the immigration industry and the investment community.
The Office of the President of Portugal issued a statement on the 19th stating that the next presidential election in Portugal will be held on January 24th of next year.
The term of the President of Portugal is 5 years, and they may be re-elected for one consecutive term. The President has the power to dissolve parliament, call for new elections, and appoint the leader of the party that wins the election as Prime Minister.
The current President of Portugal, Silva, is 76 years old. He was elected President in January 2006 and successfully re-elected in January 2011.
The presidential election is related to changes in Portugal's investment immigration policy. In this year's global investment immigration policy ranking, Portugal's "Golden Residence Permit Program" won first place, so this election is highly anticipated.
