European Residency in 90 Days
Challenge
The family faced multiple compounding complexities that threatened to derail their mobility objectives. Their compressed timeline of ninety days left minimal margin for administrative delays or documentation errors. Furthermore, their sophisticated corporate ownership structures, while legally sound, triggered enhanced due diligence protocols across multiple jurisdictions.
They also required a residency solution that did not mandate significant physical presence, as their business obligations kept them primarily based in Stockholm and London. Any solution would need to accommodate their existing tax residency arrangements while providing genuine freedom of movement across the European Economic Area.
Additionally, the family’s high public profile in Scandinavian business circles demanded complete discretion throughout the application process, as any public disclosure could trigger unwanted regulatory scrutiny or media attention.
Solution
Broadment deployed a comprehensive Portuguese Golden Visa strategy, leveraging our direct relationships with local immigration authorities and approved investment fund managers. Our team completed all compliance documentation within six weeks, including source-of-wealth verification, corporate structure mapping, and biometric coordination.
We negotiated expedited processing through our government liaison channels, securing conditional approval in eight weeks and final permit issuance by day eighty-seven. The family now holds renewable five-year residence permits with visa-free Schengen access, minimal physical presence requirements, and a clear pathway to citizenship after five years.
All documentation was handled with complete confidentiality, and their existing Nordic tax positions remained undisturbed throughout the process. Broadment continues to manage annual compliance filings and renewal preparations on behalf of the family office.
