Move to Portugal Webinar Series
Recorded Spring 2021
Move to Portugal in 2021
We recorded this comprehensive webinar series in Spring 2021, aiming to cover all of the key issues you need to consider when planning your move to Portugal.
The pandemic response has meant that we have not yet been able to hold physical events in Portugal to support people planning their move to Portugal, but we plan to do so as soon as it becomes practical.
I hope these webinars are useful to you. We are here to help you with your move and if you have any questions or if we can use our extensive network to support you in your move, we would be very happy to hear from you at expats@expatnetwork.com.
All the best
