How should investors get started with the Golden Visa process?

When beginning the Golden Visa process, it's important to look for professional help because this is a large investment and a complex process. You should interview multiple Portuguese Golden Visa advisors, keeping in mind that quality varies significantly among them. One important consideration is that most advisors require referral fees from funds if their clients invest, which means the advisor's curated list of funds may favor those paying the best referral fees rather than those that are the best fit for your needs. This is why many applicants choose to get an independent Portuguese lawyer instead. When evaluating potential lawyers or advisors, look for responsiveness, depth of knowledge, quality of responses, ethical practices, and a strong track record.
