The GOLDEN VISA program has a new legal framework that comes into effect next year, from January 1, 2022.
But this is not the end of it. Opportunities in real estate and capital transfers for foreign investors in Portugal continue to exist.

1. A minimum amount of €500,000.00, for housing purposes, will only be allowed in the interior of Portugal, Azores and Madeira. →If in a low-density area, the minimum amount drops 20 percent to €400,000
2. A minimum amount of €350,000, with rehabilitation works in urban center of home more than 30 years old, for housing purposes, will only be allowed in the interior of Portugal, Azores and Madeira. →If in a low-density area, the minimum amount drops 20 percent to €280,000
Capital Transfer(s):
1. The transfer of capital in an amount equal to or greater than 1 million euros, passes to a minimum investment of 1.5 million;
2. The minimum investment value in the transfer of capital for application in research activities carried out by public or private scientific research institutions, integrated in the national scientific and technological system, goes from €350,000.00 to €500,000.00;

HOW TO BENEFIT FROM THE RESIDENCE AUTHORIZATION REGIME FOR INVESTMENT (ARI)
Supports and incentives:
• Any foreign investor will have until December 31, 2021 to submit their Golden visa process, under the current law (with the same minimum investment amounts, anywhere in the country and fulfilling the same requirements); Deduction from the collection of 30% of the costs of the rehabilitation work, up to a limit of 500 €.
• Provided the investor's file is submitted before January 1, 2022, that is, under current law, it will not be affected by the changes that will occur, even if approval of the process takes place after that date;
• The geographic limitations that will be verified in real estate investment for housing purposes, by "pushing" investment to the interior and to the islands, will allow that there are still several investment possibilities, with high potential, which will enable the promotion and development from certain parts of the country;
• These limitations on real estate investment will apply “only” to residential properties, which means that foreign investors may continue to invest throughout the country, including Lisbon, Porto and Litoral, in properties whose use/purpose is other than housing purposes (commerce, services, others), even after January 1, 2022;
• The planned changes do not affect the possibility of renewing the ARI or granting/renewing residence permits for Family Reunification (provided that the investor's process has been submitted under current law).
Under the terms of the changes introduced, with regard to investment real estate, the acquisition of real estate will only be eligible for the purpose of obtaining a Golden Visa if they are located in the interior territories or in the Autonomous Regions of the Azores and Madeira.
