Risks & important considerations
Qualifying income
Savings or occasional payments may not establish income of your own under the intended D7 route. Explain the source, regularity and evidence.
Different from D8
A D7 application and a remote-work visa serve different circumstances. Choose the route that matches what you will actually do in Portugal.
Consular documents
Housing, financial and other documents must satisfy the relevant consular requirements. An incomplete application can delay or undermine the assessment.
