What is the current state of Portugal’s e-residency program?

I am wondering whether the e-residency program in Portugal has been rolled out yet? It seems there are only articles and websites that speak about this program being in the making, but they are already a couple of years old. Any updates on this topic?

As you mentioned, although the e-residency program in Portugal is being developed, it is not actually operating yet.

The e-residency program of Portugal allows anyone who wants to establish a company in Portugal to do so without being a tax resident in the country. E-residents will be allowed to access personal and business banking services, as well as National Health Services in Portugal. The Portuguese government is working on creating public and private services to offer to those who intend to have a fiscal business headquarters in Portugal. Needless to say, all necessary government websites in Portugal with crucial information and services on entrepreneurship will be translated into English. The informational and legal documentation necessary for the process will be bilingual in Portuguese and English. As of 2022, there has been no official introduction of the program.

Portugal’s e-residency program was announced by the current Government years ago but is not yet in force.
