Interest in Portuguese Golden Visa increased among US investors
Donald Trump’s re-election has sparked a surge in interest among Americans seeking Golden Visas as a “Plan B” for political and social stability.
Programs like Portugal's Golden Visa, which grants residency and European citizenship through financial investments, have seen a 33% increase in inquiries this year compared to 2023. Notably, Portugal's program stands out for requiring a minimum investment of € 250.000 and offer citizenship in just five years, a shorter timeframe than most European countries.
Portugal: the preferred choice
Portugal continues to lead as the preferred destination for Americans seeking a second passport. Its Golden Visa program is more affordable compared to countries like Malta and Austria, where upfront costs range from €600,000 to €3.5 million.
In addition to offering a pathway to European citizenship, Portugal offers a high quality of life, strong cultural ties and a favorable tax environment.
