What are the current Portugal Golden Visa investment options in 2026, and could a US Self-Directed IRA (SIDRA) or cryptocurrency holdings potentially be used to fund a qualifying investment?

In this webinar, we explore the latest Portugal Golden Visa rules following the end of the real estate investment route, including qualifying investment funds, company investment and cultural donations. We also discuss how eligible US investors may potentially use a Self-Directed IRA (SDIRA) or other retirement funds to invest in a qualifying Portuguese Golden Visa fund, subject to appropriate US legal and tax advice, and how cryptocurrency holdings may potentially be converted into euros for an eligible fund investment, subject to banking and compliance requirements.

The Portugal Golden Visa remains a flexible route to Portuguese residency for eligible investors, with a minimum stay requirement of just seven days per year. Unlike residency routes such as the D7 and D8, it may allow investors to maintain Portuguese residency without relocating permanently or automatically becoming Portuguese tax residents, while also creating opportunities for eligible family members and providing a potential pathway towards Portuguese citizenship.

Whether you are exploring Portugal residency by investment, considering a future move to Portugal, looking at Portugal Golden Visa funds, or interested in how retirement accounts and digital assets may fit into a wider international investment strategy, this webinar provides an up-to-date overview of the options and important considerations involved.

Discover Tomar, Portugal: Knights Templar History, Hidden Gems & Local Traditions (with Sara Cruz)

This episode is a local’s guide to Tomar in central Portugal, led virtually by Sara Cruz of Go Walks Portugal, focusing on the town’s history, culture, and everyday life. The discussion highlights Tomar’s setting on the River Nabão and its major landmarks, especially the UNESCO-listed Convent of Christ and its Rotunda, along with Praça da República, Parque do Mochão, and Portugal’s oldest synagogue reflecting Tomar’s Jewish heritage. Sara emphasizes exploring lesser-known details, including remnants of former convent architecture and the 17th-century aqueduct, which is accessible but requires caution.

The conversation also covers unconventional stops like a ceramics and tile workshop, the Matchbox Museum, Café Paraíso, and key events such as the four-year Festa dos Tabuleiros and annual Knights Templar historical recreations. Nearby, the Almourol Castle on the Tagus is recommended, with notes on boat access and its later propaganda use, plus suggestions for multi-day visits including Vila Nova da Barquinha and Dornes.

Portugal Property Costs Explained: New IMT Rules, Taxes, FX Transfers & Buying Mistakes to Avoid

This Expats Portugal session with lawyer Daniel Reis (Reis & Pellicano) and Sarah Davey (SpartanFX) explains the real costs of buying and owning property in Portugal, focusing on the new IMT rules: non-tax residents buying below €1.15M face a 7.5% acquisition tax rate, but those who become Portuguese tax residents within two years can reclaim the excess paid. They outline IMT and stamp duty (IS) examples, when and how taxes are paid at the deed, and practical issues like Multibanco limits and bank transfer caps, stressing advance planning for money flows and foreign exchange volatility. Daniel covers closing costs, mortgage risks and the need for a banking/evaluation clause in the CPCV, IMI annual tax and pro-rata year-end adjustments, capital gains taxation and deductions, reinvestment relief (including EU-wide), inheritance basics, and common mistakes such as skipping due diligence and not keeping renovation invoices.

Thinking about buying, importing, or driving an electric vehicle in Portugal? 🇵🇹⚡ Whether you're planning your move to Portugal, already living here, or simply curious about EV ownership, this webinar explores how electric vehicles really work in Portugal, from charging costs and the Mobi.e network to incentives, tariffs, and practical day-to-day ownership.

Portugal has one of Europe's most extensive public charging networks, but for many newcomers the system can seem confusing at first. How does charging actually work? Why can prices vary so much between charging stations? Do you need a Portuguese bank account or fiscal number? Is owning an EV practical if you live in an apartment? And are electric vehicles really cheaper to run than petrol or diesel cars?

In Part 1 of this two-part webinar, we're joined by Luis from the Portuguese Automobile Association (ACP), who explains the fundamentals of EV ownership in Portugal and shares practical advice to help you better understand the country's unique charging network and the costs involved.

Whether you're considering importing your current electric vehicle, buying one after moving to Portugal, or simply want to understand how the system works before making a decision, this session provides clear, practical information to help you get started.

Weekly Grocery Shopping in Portugal: Supermarkets, Costs, and Food Tips with Astrid

Astrid and the Expats Portugal hosts revisit a “supermarket tour” webinar about grocery shopping and settling in Portugal, outlining major chains (Continente, Pingo Doce, Auchan, Aldi, Lidl, Intermarché, Leclerc, and Mercadona), what each is best for (e.g., Auchan’s international aisle, Lidl bakery, Aldi specials), and the need to shop multiple stores.

They provide monthly grocery budget estimates (€150–€200 per person, €300–€500 per couple, €500–€900 for families) and discuss common newcomer surprises such as different meat cuts, widespread soup consumption, seasonal produce, UHT milk dominance, fresh fish counters, and in-store bakeries.

Astrid shares Portuguese foods to try, decodes common label terms (including lactose/gluten/sugar-free and meat/fish prep words), gives sample prices across categories, notes growing vegan/vegetarian options, explains loyalty cards and fuel-linked discounts, and answers questions about organic options, farmers’ markets, and using a NIF at checkout.
