How can I fast track my golden visa application for Portugal?

I want to invest in real estate and bring my family from Vietnam to Portugal. Can I pay to expedite the process or invest in projects that have been approved already?

    Golden Visa applications are being processed by chronological order of entrance. There is no official procedure to expedite certain applications.

    Unfortunately, there doesn’t exist any way for an application to fast track / speed up the application for a Golden Visa, even if they are willing to pay any extra fee. Only in certain proven cases of force major (urgent medical procedures to be undergone, for example) can the procedure move a bit faster, but just a very small number of these are accepted by the authorities.

    It is not possible to rush the Golden Visa process. There is no urgency fee payable to speed up the application. If you have already submitted your application, you can move to Portugal and wait for your residence permit to be granted, but you cannot leave the country until your residence permit is granted, until you receive your residence card.

    Unfortunately, there is no fast track on the Portuguese Golden Visa application, unless you have a proven way to show that your process is urgent and requires an urgent analysis. This tends to be very difficult to prove.
