Portugal was one of the first countries in Europe to introduce a "residency by investment" program. Immigrating to Portugal allows you to enjoy extraordinary scenery while benefiting from investment returns and social welfare. Investor interest in Portuguese real estate has strengthened, reflecting the "value for money" of Portuguese assets. Recently, Portugal's economic recovery has brought a series of positive developments; let's take a look with WorldWay.
Portugal's January tourism data breaks records again
According to the latest data from Portugal, the number of hotel guests exceeded 1 million for the first time in January. There has been an increase in visitors from emerging markets, with Swiss guests increasing by 50% compared to January 2017, American tourists by 22%, and Brazilian tourists by 15%. The boom in tourism is inseparable from government investment in cultural heritage protection, the rise of urban influence, and diversified tourism projects. Last year, Portugal was also awarded the title of "World's Leading Destination."
Portugal is one of the best countries for businesswomen
According to the Mastercard Index of Women Entrepreneurs, Portugal provides the best opportunities for the success of businesswomen. Portugal's unemployment rate has fallen by 18.3% compared to the same period last year, reaching its lowest level since 2008. Both the real estate and emerging technology industries are set for significant development, and the overall economy is on an upward trend. Relevant surveys indicate that men and women in Portugal receive relatively equal recognition in the workplace.
All local health centers in Portugal will have dentists by next year
The Portuguese Secretary of State for Health announced that starting next year, each of the 55 local health center groups in Portugal must have at least one dentist. Portugal attaches great importance to the development of national healthcare; according to research, the Portuguese government's investment in healthcare accounts for 10.7% of the country's total GDP.
Portugal has a beautiful environment and is a famous kingdom for vacations and tourism, welcoming millions of international tourists every year. It offers high investment returns and significant potential for future appreciation. Portuguese real estate has great advantages in terms of property rights, policy, and market maturity. By purchasing property, parents not only provide their children with better living conditions and investment returns as property prices rise, but their children can also access superior education. In 2017, Portugal added 12 new immigration offices, which is also a major positive development for the approval of Golden Residence permits. Currently, applicants can obtain a "Golden Residence Permit" visa for three generations of their family by investing 500,000 euros in Portuguese real estate, creating a second home overseas and enjoying high European welfare benefits.
