Below are some of this webinar's key talking points:
Tax Incentives: The now-ended Non-Habitual Residency (NHR) tax scheme was a significant draw for wealthy ex-pats, offering 0% tax on non-Portugal income and 10% on overseas pensions. Despite its closure, new tax incentives under the "NHR 2.0" tax regime, set to start in 2025, aim to attract high-skilled professions, academics, and entrepreneurs.
High Quality of Life: Portugal's appeal extends beyond tax benefits, with 300 days of sunshine, cost of living, cultural richness, safety, lifestyle and healthcare also key reasons for relocation.
Real Estate Opportunities: The luxury real estate market in Portugal, fuelled by high demand and a shortage of land in affluent expat enclaves, offers attractive opportunities for capital growth, lifestyle living and rental yields. The Golden Visa, D7 Visa, and Digital Nomad Visa have been pivotal in driving this market.
Cultural and Natural Attractions: Portugal's Mediterranean climate and Atlantic coastline, coupled with its scenic beauty, historic charm, and vibrant culture, make it an irresistible destination for affluent expats.
Strategic Location: Portugal provides easy access to other European countries through residency or dual citizenship via Golden Visa residency-by-investment, making it a convenient hub for both travel and business.
This expert panel will also discuss:
Portugal's diverse visa options, including the D8 (Digital Nomad) visa for skilled remote workers and the D2 (Entrepreneur) visa for start-ups and individuals looking to move their businesses to Portugal.
The Portuguese Golden Visa residency-by-investment program and how affluent individuals can gain residency with a €500K investment in an approved and regulated fund for Golden Visa.
The appeal of Portugal, including the countries attractive cost of living, rich culture, and enviable climate, all of which contribute to the country's growing popularity among expatriates.
