The full answer
Understand the requirements. Review your circumstances with qualified advisors.
Yes. Family reunification is one of the important features of the Golden Visa. Depending on the circumstances, eligible family members may include a spouse or partner, dependent children and certain dependent parents or other qualifying relatives.
Family members receive their own Portuguese residence permits linked to the main applicant's status and can benefit from the rights attached to those permits, including the ability to reside in Portugal and, where legally applicable, work or study here. Because eligibility depends on each family's circumstances, the family structure should be reviewed with an immigration lawyer before the application is prepared.
