GOLDEN VISA
West Iberia specializes in providing excellent service for the government´s Golden Visa Program leading to Citizenship and Passport for non E.U. citizens around the world. We recommend and focus on the two simplest and most reliable routes. These are through a donation of €250.000 to the Portuguese Cultural Heritage program or investing the minimum government required amount of €500.000 through the purchase of capitalisation units solely in capital funds approved by the portuguese regulatory body, CMVM, the Securities Market Commission in Portugal. It is the regulatory authority for the Portuguese capital markets, supervising and regulating securities and other financial instruments. The CMVM also plays a crucial role in protecting investors.
In 2025, we suggest you enquire with us on our recommended capital investments in proven industries that make sense in Portugal. The protection of your money is our priority.
