During her speech, Ms. Sonia Pereira pointed out: "In the past six years, the number of people obtaining Portuguese citizenship has surged by 366%. Portugal is welcoming foreign immigrants with an open attitude through relatively relaxed residency policies and integration mechanisms, and is encouraging and welcoming immigrants to transition from temporary residency to citizenship."
Ms. Sonia Pereira specifically mentioned that on January 4, 2024, the Portuguese Parliament officially passed amendments to the new Nationality Law, adding a fourth clause to Article 15 of the Nationality Law: when calculating the legal residency period stipulated by this law, the time elapsed from the application for a temporary residence permit shall be counted as the legal residency period. Investors and their families can apply for Portuguese citizenship after five years. Additionally, according to the requirements for citizenship applications, applicants can meet the language requirements for citizenship by completing 150 hours of Portuguese language courses or passing the Portuguese A2 exam, providing more options for immigrants from different backgrounds.
As one of the earliest immigration agencies promoting the Portugal Golden Residence Permit program in China, WorldWay Communication has created the first case of a Portuguese Golden Visa investor in China, successfully applying for a Portuguese EU passport. From the signing of the immigration service agreement between the client and WorldWay Communication in June 2013, to the issuance of the Golden Residence Card to the entire family in August 2014, and finally to the client receiving the Portuguese passport at the Portuguese Consulate in Boston, USA, in September 2023, WorldWay Communication has provided professional guidance and efficient services throughout the process, ensuring that clients successfully complete the entire application path from Golden Visa to passport.
In the current context of tightening European immigration policies, WorldWay Communication reminds all investors to take action as soon as possible to seize opportunities and take advantage of policy benefits, realizing their dreams of Europe sooner! Whether you are a family that values children's education, individuals pursuing a high-quality life, retirees, or investment enthusiasts, Portugal is an ideal choice for you.
Currently, the application conditions for the Portugal Fund Investment Immigration Program are simple, with no language, educational, or business background requirements, and investments can be completed without entering the country. Investors can invest starting from €500,000 to purchase funds, allowing three generations of the family to apply for Portuguese Golden Residence status, with quick approval. As a member of the European Union, Schengen Area, and NATO, holding a Portuguese residence permit allows free travel to 29 Schengen countries. After obtaining Portuguese Golden Residence status, as long as an average of 14 days of residence is accumulated every two years, and five years have passed since the submission of the immigration application, one can apply for citizenship and hold an EU passport.
