D8 Digital Nomad Visa introduced

Portugal introduced a dedicated remote-worker residence permit (visto de residência para exercício de atividade profissional prestada de forma remota, commonly "D8") from 30 October 2022. Applicants demonstrating foreign-source income of at least four times the national minimum wage (approximately €3,480/month in 2025) qualify for either a one-year temporary-stay visa or a residence permit renewable for up to five years with a path to permanent residence and citizenship.
