Overview of Webinar

Are you an American citizen considering moving to Portugal?

In this webinar we’ll be discussing everything you need to know about relocating from the US to Portugal.

The number of US expats moving to Portugal increased by almost 240% from 2017 to 2022. As of 2023, there were more than 14,000 US citizens living in the country.

With its affordable cost of living, warm climate, stunning scenery, relaxed culture and excellent healthcare system, it’s not a surprise that it’s become such a popular destination for US citizens moving abroad.

The types of visas available to American citizens wanting to move to Portugal
The need-to-knows of buying or renting a property in Portugal
