Portugal, the westernmost country on European continent and an EU member since 1986, is situated on the Atlantic coast. Portugal is considered among the developed nations of the world and it even has a very high Human Development Index.

Though a relatively small country, it is regarded extremely safe because of the low crime rate. Its healthcare system is well-developed and offers both public and private options.

Portuguese is the widely spoken language but English is also widely used, particularly among younger people and in tourist regions. The country is a Schengen member and uses the Euro as its official currency.

Though Portugal’s economy is leaning towards commercial services, manufacturing still contributes approximately one-third of the country’s GDP. It is also the world’s largest cork provider and benefits from a thriving tourism sector.

Because it has few indigenous hydro-carbon energy resources, Portugal is committed to developing renewable energy sources like hydro, wind, and solar electricity. Moreover 40% of Portugal’s energy production comes from these sources, including the most efficient wind tower in the entire world.

And to give the economy of the nation a further boost, the government launched the Portugal residency by investment program, famous as Portugal Golden Visa.

Since its launch, Portugal Golden Visa has been bagging attention of the investors from every corner of the globe.
