Portugal

Olá Portugal! This beautiful country is becoming more and more popular when it comes to emigratie. The country is not only known for its beautiful coastlines with beautiful beaches and cliffs, but also for the small fishing villages, the mountains and rivers, and of course the historic cities. And don't forget the delicious port wine, the hospitable people and their fado music?

• The mild and warm climate is a favorite for many!
• The unspoiled nature ensures that people want to live close to the Portuguese coastlines.
• Housing prices are extremely favorable.
• The cost of living is much lower than in the Netherlands.
• Life is simple. Less haste and stress, and more enjoyment.
• A fantastic cuisine. Eating out is a celebration and a part of life.
• Portugal is one of the safest countries in Europe.
• The healthcare is well organized. The public healthcare system, the ‘Serviço Nacional de Saúde (SNS)’ is available to all people and has excellent coverage at a good price. You also have the option of (additional) private health insurance.
• Education is good. You have private schools, public schools, but homeschooling is also allowed.
• Portugal is one of the countries that focuses the most on environmental issues. It wants to be an environmentally friendly economy.

First of all; prepare very well. This applies to everything. Involve multiple specialists who can take the burden off you and your family. This prevents most of the stress. Arranging matters takes much more time than a domestic move.

The Portuguese bureaucracy is totally different from the Dutch. Paperwork, as in other Southern European countries, can take much longer than you're used to. Think for example of the local municipality, but also applying for your NIF number. Tip: start your preparation well in advance!
