What is the minimum income required for the Portugal D7 visa in 2026?

For 2026, the primary applicant must demonstrate a guaranteed passive income of at least €920 per month (€11,040 annually), matching 100% of the Portuguese statutory minimum wage (RMMG). A spouse requires an additional 50% (€460/mo), and each dependent child requires an additional 30% (€276/mo).

Can salary or remote employment count towards the D7 visa?

No. Active employment, remote contracting, and freelance work do not qualify for the D7 visa. Remote workers must apply for the D8 Digital Nomad visa. The D7 visa is strictly reserved for verifiable passive income such as pensions, real estate rentals, investment dividends, royalties, and fixed annuities.

How much money should be deposited in a Portuguese bank account for the D7 application?

While consular regulations strictly require proof of one year of income (€11,040 for a single applicant), Portuguese consulates strongly favor applicants who deposit at least 24 months worth of living expenses (€25,000–€30,000 for an individual, €35,000–€45,000 for a couple) into a funded Portuguese bank account with an issued NIF.

When can a D7 visa holder apply for Portuguese citizenship?

Under Article 15, paragraph 4 of the Portuguese Nationality Law (Lei Orgânica n.º 1/2024), D7 residents can apply for Portuguese nationality and passport exactly 5 years after the payment date of their initial temporary residence permit fee (DUC), provided they pass the A2 Portuguese language exam (CIPLE) and maintain a clean criminal record.
