On October 6, 2023, local time, the Diário da República of Portugal published the new housing bill, which took effect the following day, officially implemented on October 7! Among the changes, the real estate investment option under the Portuguese Golden Visa program has been completely terminated, and no new applications for real estate investment immigration will be accepted starting October 7.
The Portuguese real estate investment immigration policy began in October 2012 and was officially declared closed in October 2023. This marks the end of the 11-year era of Portuguese real estate investment immigration! For those who wish to immigrate to Portugal through real estate investment, the opportunity no longer exists; the saying that one must immigrate early is certainly not just talk.
In response to the closure of this Portuguese real estate investment immigration program, WorldWay Group launched an emergency rapid filing and submission service. WorldWay Group's project team, documentation team, customer service team, and overseas personnel team worked in close coordination with clear divisions of labor, going all out and racing against time to help investors complete the relevant application submission procedures before October 7.
In fact, for over twenty years of deep cultivation in the immigration industry, WorldWay Group has consistently provided professional, timely, and thoughtful services to meet the specific needs of every client. On the eve of every policy change, the WorldWay Group team has always entered a sprint mode, working with full energy and determination to successfully help investors catch the last train of immigration and assist every investor in realizing their immigration dream.
The two key elements of immigration are timing and choice! Those who seized the policy dividends have long realized their immigration dreams, while those who have missed out should seize the present and hurry to get on board. In fact, regardless of which country one is immigrating to, one should act as early as possible because immigration is highly correlated with the policies of the respective country. Who can predict the changes in a country's immigration law? The only thing you can do to obtain your desired status is to seize the moment! When it comes to status planning, there is no room for hesitation.
Recently, immigration programs in various European countries have undergone successive changes. For those interested in immigrating to Europe, Greece is a good choice. As one of the few projects in the current immigration market that allows for the rapid acquisition of an EU country's green card, the Greek real estate investment immigration program is a highly cost-effective option among European countries. This program has relaxed application requirements, with no education, language, management experience, or residency requirements. Furthermore, the whole family of three generations can apply for Greek permanent residence visas, travel freely through 27 Schengen countries, and enjoy social welfare benefits such as Greek education and healthcare. Upon meeting the conditions, one can apply for an EU passport while also acquiring real estate with permanent property rights—it offers many advantages!
Currently, it is a good time to immigrate to Greece. Since August 1, the investment threshold for the Greek Golden Visa has officially doubled from 250,000 euros to 500,000 euros in certain regions! According to the amendment, other areas such as East Attica, West Attica, and Piraeus will maintain the 250,000 euro policy, and it will continue to be permitted to reach the threshold amount through a portfolio of multiple properties. For investors, this is a new opportunity following the price increase of the Greek real estate investment immigration program. Investors who choose to purchase properties starting from 250,000 euros in non-price-increase areas can still have their whole family of three generations apply for Greek permanent residence visas, which remains a cost-effective choice.
After the price increase for Greek real estate investment immigration, properties in non-price-increase areas may become highly sought after. Those interested in immigrating to Greece should contact WorldWay as soon as possible, as high-quality properties are in short supply.
As everyone knows, immigration is a long and complex process. After investors and their families obtain citizenship, they will have lifelong ties to that country. Many aspects of a citizen's life and career may require government assistance or the issuance of valid supporting documents, and these matters require the assistance of an agency with good relations with the government. It can be said that WorldWay is a reassuring choice for investors immigrating to Greece.
In July 2013, WorldWay Group partnered with the Greek Embassy in China to hold the "Greek Real Estate Investment Immigration" launch ceremony in China, introducing the Greek real estate investment immigration program to the country. Since then, the land of ancient Greek civilization has opened its arms to welcome new Chinese immigrants, marking the beginning of Chinese investors establishing a "second home" in Greece! Now that it is 2023, the Greek real estate investment immigration program has reached a major milestone of ten years in China, which is of extraordinary significance.
Over the past decade, WorldWay Group has maintained good interactions with the Greek government, and senior executives of WorldWay Group have met with dozens of dignitaries, including the Greek Ambassador to China, Commercial Ministers, Consuls, and immigration officials.
