Hello yoog,

I have moved your post in the Portugal forum, where you will have more interactions from members who are already there.

Also, while awaiting for them to join, I suggest you have a look at the Living in Portugal guide, which contains article on steps to be take in order to relocate in that country.

Thank you and good luck!
Marjorie

Hello all

@ Yoog : Portugal is in Europe, it is easy for europeans to settle there. Being from Nepal it would be nearly impossible for you to have the same privilege as Europens.

I believe anyone outside of Portugal can enter the country using the 'Golden Visa' residency by investment option where yo pay either 350,000€ when investing in property that needs reform or new property which costs 500,000€ if you have that sort of money.
