A residence visa for passive income holders or retirees who want to live in Portugal. Passive income earners who can apply for this visa can gain special tax status that grants them a 10year income tax break. Non EU/ EEA/Swiss Citizens who intend to relocate to Portugal and have a reasonable net regular passive income can apply for this visa.
