Has anyone from India on this forum successfully immigrated to Portugal on a D7 visa?

As an Indian who is considering applying for a D7 visa, I am beginning to worry that it is a rare phenomenon. I have looked through this forum but have not come across a single case of an Indian citizen making it through the D7 process.

I can't claim to know much about this. But isn't a d7 visa based on income or investment, or something? In short, it is about money, isn't it?

D7 visa requires a passive income available at the start of visa application. It is not very common for Indian nationals to go this route, from what I have seen here.

It isn't common but totally allowed!
If you can prove the income and all the requests that D7 needs you should apply it.

I strongly recommend you to open a bank account in Portugal to start this process using a professional or by yourself. The bank account is really important for you D7 applicantion.

Good luck!

I am doing this, right now, India is waiting for the bank account, I am using the e-residence.com services, seems fine.

I need some advice, Can i use cryptocurrency as proof of passive income? Somewhere in the forum, I read that there are some lawyers and expeditors available can someone please drop a link or two? I would like to show my documents to them to get some clarity thanks聽

Cryptocurrencies are not accepted as passive income for the D7 visa. But you can find out more about this from a solicitor or lawyer in Portugal.

@JohnnyPT

Thanks for the prompt response. It looks like its a grey area, though I am coming across some forums where people are using Crypto as proof, not sure how much importance does it weigh in case of approval of those cases.
