WHY PORTUGAL?
Portugal is more than a destination – it is a strategic choice.

The World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) reports that tourism contributed €41.2 billion to GDP in 2023 (17.5% of the economy), surpassing 2019 figures. By 2025, this is expected to reach €45 billion, with international arrivals increasing by 12%, positioning Portugal as Europe’s third most sought-after destination. Goldman Sachs (European Tourism Outlook 2025) highlights an increase in flight bookings: +45% from the US, +25% from the UK, and +18% from Germany. McKinsey (Travel Reimagined: Europe 2025) identifies Portugal as a leader in sustainable tourism, with 68% of visitors valuing green initiatives, aligning with the country’s goal of 43% renewable energy by 2030.

In 2024, Portugal was named Europe’s Best Destination by the World Travel Awards, securing 28 prizes and reinforcing its global reputation.

A Market for Living and Investing
Portugal is one of the most attractive countries to live in. The Expat Insider 2024 (InterNations) ranks it 4th globally for expatriates, with 89% praising the quality of life. Goldman Sachs (Global Mobility Report 2024) recorded 1,600 millionaires relocating to Portugal in 2023 (a 20% increase), drawn by incentives such as the Non-Habitual Resident scheme and the Golden Visa, which continues to attract significant investment via funds, despite adjustments in 2023.

Ranked 7th in the Global Peace Index 2024, Portugal is considered safe by 96% of expatriates (vs. 84% globally). The climate is another major draw, with 230 sunny days per year in Lisbon and 310 in the Algarve. Additionally, the cost of living remains competitive (€1,200/month for basic comfort in Lisbon, 30% below the European average, according to McKinsey). The National Health System, ranked among Europe’s top 20 (WHO, 2023), provides accessible care, with private consultations available from €50.

Culture and Real Estate Opportunities
From the Algarve to the Douro, Portugal blends tradition and modernity, boasting eight two-Michelin-starred restaurants and 31 one-starred establishments in 2024, showcasing its culinary excellence. This dynamic atmosphere fuels the real estate market, making it ideal for residences, second homes, and investment opportunities.

The country’s renowned hospitality is reflected in its welcoming culture: 94% of expatriates praise the Portuguese people, and 49% plan to stay permanently (InterNations).

A Sustainable Future
With a €12.4 billion investment in renewable energy by 2030, Portugal is reducing its energy dependence to 65% (from 74% in 2020), attracting environmentally conscious residents and investors.
