Even if You're Not Rich, You Should Know This about the Golden Visa
The Golden Visa for Portugal has been a hot topic lately because of the government announcing they want to stop processing them. But why does Portugal want to stop their Golden Visa scheme? Has it actually happened yet and what does implementing this look like?
Josh from ExpatsEverywhere breaks down the numbers on what the Golden Visa has looked like since it started in 2012, numbers that don't seem to be adding up to their reasoning for doing away with this visa. So, after seeing the facts, what do you think?
