    Jul 30 2024

    Diana Andrade is the Head of Portuguese Immigration at Lexidy Law in Lisbon and today she stops by the show to share several updates on Portugal’s rapidly changing visa and immigration process for aspiring digital nomads and expats.

But the government recently made a variety of changes to these laws which have put this in jeopardy and created a lot of confusion, so Diana is here to set the record straight and answer your questions about the realities of moving to Portugal in 2024.
