Are you looking to retire, work remotely, or enjoy a peaceful European lifestyle with a low cost of living? The Portugal D7 Visa, also known as the Passive Income Visa or Retirement Visa, offers a unique pathway to residency in Portugal for non-EU nationals – and Nova Immigration in Dubai can help you secure it with ease.

What Is the Portugal D7 Visa?

The D7 Visa is designed for individuals who have a stable passive income from:

• Pensions
• Rental properties
• Remote freelance or business income
• Investments or dividends

It allows you to live in Portugal with your family, access public services, and eventually apply for permanent residency or citizenship.

Why Consider the D7 Visa?

• No major investment required (unlike the Golden Visa)
• Path to EU citizenship after 5 years
• Family reunification included
• Visa-free travel across the Schengen zone
• Access to Portugal’s excellent healthcare and education systems

Whether you want to work remotely in a sunny, tax-friendly country or retire in Europe, the D7 visa is a perfect choice.

Portugal D7 Visa Requirements

To be eligible, you need:

• Proof of stable passive income (approx. €820/month for the main applicant)
• Portuguese NIF number (Nova can help you get it)
• Portuguese bank account
• Accommodation proof in Portugal
• Clean criminal record
• Valid health insurance

Nova Immigration can guide you through each of these requirements step-by-step.
