Brazilian immigration and its impact on Portugal's economic growth
Currently, 322,570 Brazilians are employed in Portugal, representing 38.7% of foreigners in the Portuguese labor market. With an increase in Social Security contributions of almost 200% between 2021 and 2024, the presence of the Brazilian community has been crucial to the good performance of the economy. Economist Eduardo Velho explains that for each additional percentage point of Brazilian contributions, Portugal's GDP grows by 0.23 points. This directly reflects on consumption and retail, two important components of the national economy.
