So there goes the Golden Visa regime. No more need to purchase property of €300k anymore? Are the gates now open for the refugees?

They already were - although that's rather a diversion from the subject of the thread.

Re: Non EU residency rule change
As I read it the change applies to non EU passport holders who enter on a visa such as Schengen & it then allows them to apply for a D type residency/work visa whilst here in Portugal.
If I'm right, it'd be a massive help for people such as white Africans (amongst others) who need to get out of their own country, have the skills to earn a living here (even on a self employed basis) but lack the lump sum for the Golden Visa.

So, has Trump bought his place, or the development sit/s yet?... Being a golfer I guess he can ue the existing GV scheme to shift money on & off shore.

Re: Non EU residency rule change
I could well have misunderstood it but if I have got it right it could make a massive difference to Portugal & many people with good skills but not so much capital & that can't be a bad thing.
Although I have to say I find it very surprising that Portugal can make it's own rules that don't toe the EU line.

As the report said she will probably have the 500k as loose change.
Given the views of those coming from S.A.and Zimbabwe , Portugal is the last place I would want them.

Re: Non EU residency rule change
Perhaps this might be a more reasonable way of justification for them coming in.
Is world ignoring white genocide?
I'll refrain from posting the more graphic details & images out of respect for the victims.

EMR has obviously never been to Africa. I had to send my kids to the UK as Africa is not meant for white people to live in. Me and wife had to flee to PT.

Still, the good news is no-one shoots at you or tries to hijack you & there's no need to carry a sidearm here.
I'm all for more Saffers under persecution being allowed in.

Re: Non EU residency rule change
I think it depends on how you look at it....... As I see it, the rule change should make it easier for white Africans whatever their cultural backgrounds that have a good work ethic, skills & the culture to fit in to get out of the hole they're in & make a safe & successful new life & that can't be a bad thing.

Re: Non EU residency rule change
You might as well say that you would not send your kids to Asia.
Given the past history of S.A. I can understand that those whise who benefited during those times are not comfortable or welcome now.
But moving their was their choice and in the case of some I know their reasons for going there were because of the government in power at that time.
They are not owed anything by the countries they left.

Re: Non EU residency rule change
Although it could be argued that the vast majority of white Africans come from a European background & are far more culturally related to Europe than those currently trying to get to Europe in blow up boats etc.
