Not really. You need someone in Portugal to do the NIF. Even if you get a lawyer in the US, the lawyer will have a lawyer in Portugal, or pay some service for the NIF, so you will be charged way more than if you just have one person assisting you (or doing it yourself).

The only issue I see with the D7 Visa is the wording in which it states (PASSIVE Income) like USA Social Security, Stock Dividends, etc. So my best understanding is that if you own a Business that has Revenue higher than the required amount, it doesn't count as that isn't Passive Income.

[@traveleconomics]

It depends on your role in the business. If you have a passive role and receive dividends, it is still ok. If you actively manage it, then the D7 is not the best option. But if you actively manage the business there are other options available to reside in Portugal.

Nice video! Currently I am living in UK and working here. Can you please tell me do I need to stay in Portugal or can I stay in UK and renew yearly until settlement? Another thing, can I show my UK bank statement solvency? Thank you.

[@traveleconomics]

Depends on so many things. What visa you will apply, how long you want to still in the UK per year. I suggest you book a consultation with me or with someone else.

I have Checked with some lawyer from Portugal and he told me that you should have atleast 1150 Euros monthly income

[@traveleconomics]

It depends on your individual situation. If you are applying alone or with family members, how many family members, what type of income it is, where you are from, etc.

@@traveleconomics I am from India and working remotely with an European company. I want to apply for myself only and I earn around 600 Euros per month + I can show some other income like interest from fixed deposit and money in the bank. Am I eligible?

Dear, I am British and want to get a Portuguese residency. Now after Brexit I am told that if I come to Portugal and arrange NIF, Junta, Social, Bank account, and job contract I can apply for a 5-year residency certificate from Camara/ municipal if I pay tax for 2-3 months. Is this correct? Can you kindly find out for me and help. Thanks

[@traveleconomics]

If you find a job and they provide you with a contract you will be able to change your short term stay to a temporary residence permit in Portugal. This is not permanent residence though, UK citizens are now treated as third country nationals which are visa exempt in Portugal for stays up to 90 days in 180. If you want to go with the D7 or Golden visa, you need to apply for it from inside the UK.

[@UnholyAle]

Where would one go to apply for a D7 visa to Portugal?

[@mhmdahmed2149]

Can you mention four European countries to study master according to the best on finding job and having permanent stay after finishing studies

[@traveleconomics]

To study masters: Germany, Netherlands, UK, Estonia. To find a job: it will depend on you.

I am Christopher. I want to immigrate to Portugal. How Can you please assist me through the D7 visa?

[@libby305]

You forgot to mention the fact that you must have the total amount ( of 635 x 12) in your bank account, more is recommended. And, you must prove a recurring monthly income of 635 plus. Having the total amount in savings is not getting approved, they are getting strict with D7 visa.

[@traveleconomics]

Yes recurring income is needed, having the total amount without recurring income will not get it approved.

[@fodilmerbah8256]

Thank you

[@nirmalyanandi5046]

Hi, can you please confirm me one thing? If I buy a house in Portugal now, and receive rentaI income from it, will it help me in case I wish to apply for a D7 visa in future, say, 5 years later? I mean, can I include the rental income generated in Portugal as my passive income for D7? Or the passive income should be from outside of Portugal, for D7? If you kindly clarify this, I'd be really grateful.

[@traveleconomics]

it will help. Passive income is accepted even if it is originated from a source in Portugal.

[@carolinavarela1572]

Also for children. Anyone born in Portugal to legal resident automatically becomes portuguese. Anyone born in portugal to an illegal migrant for more than 1 year automatically becomes portuguese. So easy. Parents then get resident permits through the children

[@joyg5786]

Hi,i want to ask,about the monthly income,can we use proof of 635 EU/ month the savings in a bank account ,say you have 8000 EU in the bank

[@traveleconomics]

if that's all you have as a proof of income, and no recurring payments from dividends, rentals or other comparable passive income, it is very unlikely that only that will be enough.

[@khansaab3244]

Hi I have rental income like per year $14200 euros so when i apply d7 visa what should i do for bank deposit in portugal before application do i need to open bank acc in portugal and rental agreement in portugal because im in my country where im residence so i heard before application d7 you must open bank acc in portugal and deposit one year rental income than rent a house than aplly so how to open bank aac and how to rent and My last question is if d7 visa is rejected by some issue than what about rent that i allready paid in portugal for one year or six months for my d7 visa application i will wait for your reply thanks verry much to read this

[@shifasclasses8649]

For D7 how much should be the income from real state if i have 4 family members

[@traveleconomics]

It depends. Twelve times the minimum salary in Portugal per year for the main applicant + twelve times half of the minimum salary for a spouse, and a bit less than twelve times the minimum salary per child.

I wonder how many people from North America plan on moving to Europe within the next 5 years

[@Moccalocca100]

I hope they dont. American mentality is bad. Guns and murder

[@nadiraziz8589]

Can the main applicant take their dependent parents with them to Portugal through this way?

[@traveleconomics]

it depends on the age of the parents and their relation with the main applicant.

[@Fingerfast1213]

Is it possible to apply for a d7 visa but i have to quit my current job to transfer to portugal?

[@carolinavarela1572]

Also if your child is born in portugal and you have a resident permit automatically becomes portuguese. And children of illgeal migrants after 1 year of living here the children are automatically portuguese

[@kanushkananayakkara5050]

Hi thank you for the information. Is any chance to get work permit or job there? Thank you

[@traveleconomics]

If you find a company willing to sponsor you yes. If you have enough funds to support yourself you can also become a freelancer and get a visa, but you need quite much funds for that to work.
