Tech Visa: New Programme To Attract Talent

The Tech Visa is intended to bring greater efficiency to the granting of residence visas or residence permits for highly qualified immigrant workers that wish to work in Portugal. It therefore helps companies to attract and retain specialist talent.

The Tech Visa programme was approved by Ministerial Order 328/2018 of 19 December. This programme defines the system of certification of technological and innovative Portuguese companies wishing to bring in
nationals of third states to do highly qualified work in Portugal.
