This video is all about sharing our best advice if you are thinking of moving to Portugal (or any other country). There are 4 key questions you need to ask:
1. Is Portugal really for you?
• Get a BALANCED set of views!
• There are Portugal ‘haters’ and ‘lovers’ - read all the perspectives
• Research - Blogs, Substack, You Tube, Facebook Groups
• Can you live with the ugly?
• Do the positives outweigh for you?
2. Is it possible for you to live there?
• Do you meet the Visa Requirements?
• EU passport?
• Financially, does it work for you?
• Job, Self Employed or Passive Income
3. Where do you want to live?
• Facebook does NOT have the answer!
• What is your dream? City, Town, Portuguese community, Immigrant community, North, South, Coast
• Flat/Quinta/Land/House/Pool
• What can you afford?
• RECKY, RECKY, RECKY
4. Do you understand the tax system?
• SOOO much confusing information!
• Do NOT ask facebook! Chat GPT/Ai a much better option
• If you are serious - spend the money on a call with an expert!
• Tax Treaties
• Tax is not as bad as portrayed
• Weigh up other costs (Healthcare)
