Government Reduces Taxes for Portugal Golden Visa

Written By Jason Swan, Holborn Asset Management

Golden Visa Renewal Fees Reduced

Great news for those looking to apply for or renew their Golden Visas in Portugal. The Portuguese government has drastically reduced the Portugal Golden Visa renewal fees, effective immediately for both existing visa holders and upcoming applications.
 
The standard taxes for a renewal were previously €3900 per person and have just been lowered to just €82 per person. The Golden Visa Card fee of €7,800 still applies for new clients, but this is fantastic news for everyone looking to apply for the program or counting down the days to receive their passport.
 
Earlier this year, it was also announced that the waiting time for the visa now counts towards the 5-year requirement to apply for citizenship. This was also welcome news, alleviating some pressure on those currently waiting for their biometrics appointment.
 
Below are the current entry points of investor capital available:
 

€168,000/ €250,000 – A donation to the Portugal Government

€325,000 – Investment of €500,000 with €101,000 return paid upfront + €74,000 loan

€399,000 – Investment of €500,000 with €101,000 return paid upfront

€500,000 – All other investment routes

  1. The following statement in your publication apear to be a blatent lie as this could not be confirmed anywhere. Or could you reveal your source?

    The standard taxes for a renewal were previously €3900 per person and have just been lowered to just €82 per person.

    • Hi Helgard, we checked with the author of the article and they have given the following reply: “The source of the information is from three separate law firms, currently processing renewal applications for 82 EUR.” I hope that this helps.
