The Passive Income Residence Visa, also known administratively as a D7 visa, is a type of visa that allows non-EU citizens who are economically self-sufficient. Along with the main applicant, a spouse or children may be added.
The D7 visa is initially issued for four months. It allows the applicant to establish in Portugal during that time and apply for a Residence Permit, which will be valid for two years and is renewable for another three years period. After completing the five years residence time, the resident will be able to request either Portuguese Citizenship or permanent residence.
It is initially issued for 2 years and you can renew it for 3-year periods. Along with the main applicant, a spouse or children may be added. This D7 Visa was used for many years by digital nomads, until in October, 2022, the official Remote Work Visa started running.
