Portugal D7 2026: the passive-income visa that still works after the NHR sunset
NHR is gone for new applicants — but D7 itself remains a low-friction route to EU residency.
The Non-Habitual Resident tax regime closed to new applicants in 2024. D7 itself, however, still works. The math: prove €870/month passive or remote income, show €9,840 in savings, and you're in.
Real-world 2026 timeline: 4-7 months from appointment booking to residence card. Lisbon is saturated; Porto, Braga and the Algarve still welcome.
