01 · What we cover

Your 45 minutes, structured.

We do not run generic "discovery calls". You bring your situation, we walk you through every route. Expected output: a written roadmap PDF delivered within 24 hours, with timeline, total budget (professional fees + government fees + your investment if any), and next steps.

🛂

Eligibility

Which Portuguese residency routes you qualify for (D7, D8, D2, Golden Visa) given your nationality, income, profession, family.

📅

Timeline

Realistic month-by-month plan, including AIMA backlog, consulate slots, and Portuguese language requirement for citizenship.

💰

Total budget

Honest breakdown of professional fees, AIMA government fees, IRN State fees, translations, your qualifying investment (if any).

🏢

Tax strategy

How IFICI (the 20% flat-tax successor to NHR) fits your case, when to incorporate an LDA, double-taxation treaties with your country.

02 · The credit policy

$49 today. $0 if you proceed.

100% credit

The $49 is fully credited toward any service.

If after the call you decide to engage us for any service — NIF Express, D7, D8, D2, Golden Visa, LDA setup, IFICI — the $49 is deducted from the first invoice automatically. The credit is applied when you check out from the same email. In effect, the strategy call is free if you proceed; it costs $49 only if you decide not to move forward (which is also a perfectly valid outcome).

04 · Common questions

Frequently asked.

What does the $49 strategy call include?

A 45-minute video call (Zoom or Google Meet) with Ícaro Couto, our Chief Legal Officer (Portugal Bar nº 67883F).

Is the $49 credited toward services?

Yes. If you purchase any service from us afterwards (NIF, D7/D8, Golden Visa, LDA, etc.), the $49 is fully credited against that service. The credit is automatic when you complete checkout from the same account email.

How quickly can I book?

After payment you receive a Calendly link by email to pick a slot. We hold slots Mon-Fri in Lisbon working hours and some evening slots for US/UK time zones. Typical lead time: 2-5 business days.

The strategy call is a fixed-fee professional service so the standard "refund on filing error" of our other services doesn't apply. However, if at the end of the call you feel you didn't get value, write to us within 7 days and we'll refund the $49 in full, no questions asked.
