Why VistoPilot

With VistoPilot

Build your planNIF, NISS, a bank account, healthcare registration and your AIMA appointment — in the order they actually work.
Get settledRenewals, family reunification, permanent residence, and the 7 or 10 years to citizenship under the new law.
Plan what's nextSee a real answer
Most immigration advice online is a guess, a forum thread, or a blog from three rule changes ago. VistoPilot answers from current Portuguese law, shows you the source, and then builds the plan for you.
Every legal answer shows the issuing authority and the date it was last checked.
Each answer turns into a step-by-step plan you can track, costs and deadlines included.
On a low-confidence or high-stakes question, it says so and tells you to see a lawyer instead of guessing.
Likely yes. The D8 (digital nomad) visa is open to non-EU citizens. The main hurdle is income, about €3,680/month, plus proof of remote work and accommodation.
