Portugal D2 Visa from Pakistan

First of all, you must have a clear business idea in your mind. Then you have to register your company against which you get a trade license. The business could either be a physical business like a shop, restaurant, store, or any other kind of business. Or it could also be a business of any service sector.

Secondly, you get your income tax number and open your bank account in Portugal. Further things that you need are:

  • Residential address in Portugal.
  • Then you need a Business Address Agreement that you get after leasing a place for your business. (However, at this point, you do not need any physical place. You can get a virtual business address easily from several Virtual Address Agreement providing companies). This agreement includes all your contact details that get redirected to your phone when a person calls.
  • Once the visa is approved, you can switch from virtual business to physical business in Portugal.

There are two ways of registering your business. One way is to get a tourist visa or a Schengen visa so you can travel to Portugal and complete your registration process. Otherwise, you can also give the power of attorney to a third party so they can work on your registration process on your behalf. The third part could be anyone from your family member, friends, or lawyer.

The attorney needs to be attested by the Foreign Office of Pakistan.

You need the following documents for the application:

  • Covering letter which states your purpose of business.
  • Business Plan includes your amount of investment, experience, and type of business.
  • Company’s registration certificate or Trade license.
  • Virtual Address Agreement
  • Document of Tax Number
  • Bank Statement of your country to show your funds

These are the additional documents that you need for a D2 visa. The rest of the documents are the same as other types of visas. You need to include all those documents with these to apply for a D2 visa.

Best Way To Get a D2 Visa

The best way to apply for a visa is to do it from your own country rather than use the Schengen visa option. After you have all the documents, submit them to the Portugal embassy in Pakistan. The embassy will forward your application to Safe (the immigration department in Portugal). It verifies your documents and your business plan.

After verification, you get a 4 monthly visa. Then, you have to transfer your money from your Pakistani bank account to a Portuguese Bank Account. After transferring money, you can travel to Portugal and report Safe department upon arrival. You can also check out Portugal D7 Visa from Pakistan here.
