According to a report by SAPO News, the results of the "2017 Second Citizenship Survey" conducted by CS Global Partners indicate that approximately 89% of respondents wish to possess a second passport, and 34% stated they are considering dual citizenship.
Recently, American financial magnate Jim Rogers stated in a media interview: "In the next 10, 15, or 20 years, having only one passport is dangerous. The future situation is very 'volatile,' so you must have a PLAN B, and owning a second passport will give you a chance to survive!" Jim Rogers also mentioned that he owns more than one passport, and his children have even more.
According to a website, "Nowadays, the wealthy no longer spend their money only on private jets, yachts, or hotels; they have also started to think about a second passport." It is reported that about 80% of respondents are willing to invest 5% of their annual salary to maintain a second citizenship. Currently, at least 24 countries worldwide allow foreign nationals to obtain citizenship through investments in business, real estate, or government bonds. The publication "Business Insider" listed the 17 best countries that allow dual citizenship, with Portugal ranking eighth based on the transaction price for obtaining a passport.
In recent years, the momentum of Portugal's economic recovery has been evident. The real estate, tourism, and emerging technology industries are all set for significant development. The comprehensive rise of independent travel has led more and more foreign buyers to favor the Portuguese real estate investment market. For many overseas investors, investing in Portuguese immigration now requires only 500,000 Euros, with no language or educational requirements, allowing one applicant to secure European status for three generations! You can own property, immigrate, and enjoy multiple benefits simultaneously.
