The Portugal Golden Visa Explained with Jason Swan

Description

In this first episode of our special Podcast Portugal series on the Portuguese Golden Visa, we sit down with Golden Visa specialist Jason Swan to answer the most common questions people are asking right now about relocating to Portugal. From whether the Golden Visa is still available in 2026, to who it’s really for and why it remains one of Europe’s most attractive residency programmes, this episode provides a clear, practical introduction for anyone considering Portugal as a lifestyle or investment destination. This episode marks the beginning of a three-part series where we break down the Portuguese Golden Visa in a simple, honest, and accessible way. Jason Swan has worked with over 600 clients on Golden Visa applications and brings both professional expertise and personal experience as an expat living in the Algarve with his young family. Together, we cut through the noise and confusion to give you the facts that matter. In Episode One, we focus on the fundamentals — what the Golden Visa is today, what has changed in recent years, and whether it’s still a viable pathway for residency and future citizenship. If you’ve been searching online for answers or feeling unsure about what’s real and what’s outdated, this is the place to start. This is an interactive series, and we want to hear from you.
