The Portugal Golden Visa is dead. ☠️ That's what lazy writing at Fortune, Reuters, Forbes and a whole bunch of other publications would have you believe. I went to Bloomberg whilst in New York last week to tell the truth. There was no pulpit, so it was a seated sermon. The Portugal Golden Visa has been reformed and reloaded, enhancing guardrails for investors, removing the real estate component that made the program vulnerable to populist politics, and committing to improved efficiency. The enhanced program is is better for investors, better for Portugal, and puts it back at the top of Europes residency and citizenship by investment programs. 💰 €500K investment in a regulated fund, 👨👩👧👦 One investment covers you and your entire immediate family, 🇵🇹 You only need to visit the country for 7 days of each of the 5 years in the program, 🪇 You can apply for citizenship, forever, at the end of your time in the program. Why though? Our investors seek a second domain as a security for their families, optionality in a more complex world. Why do these 'journalists' keep writing that it's ended? Clickbait. #PortugalGoldenVisa #Portugal

My thoughts on Ecuador's new eVisa platform. On July 5, 2024, Ecuador launched its new eVisa platform, integrated into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs website. It’s fast, intuitive, and easy to use. But there are some challenges. For context, Ecuador was VISA-FREE for all nationalities until 2015. Visa restrictions began that year, and now 45 countries need a visa to visit as tourists. Ecuador’s first eVisa platform, introduced in 2015, was clunky and unreliable. It was eventually shut down, forcing visa-required nationals to apply in person at embassies/consulates. The new eVisa system is a big improvement, but two issues could limit its effectiveness. First, the in-person interview requirement: When applying online, you must select an embassy/consulate for an interview. It’s unclear if this applies to all applicants or only some. If required for all, it makes the eVisa less practical. Second, a criminal record certificate: This mandatory document can be tough to obtain, sometimes taking up to a month. In some countries, you must apply for it in person, making it difficult for travelers to apply for the eVisa while on the move. While Ecuador’s new eVisa platform shows promise, these two requirements could pose significant hurdles for many travelers. It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out.
