A plan built around your exact situation, not a stack of generic guides. After a 60-minute call with Claire you get a written Fit Plan that does all ten stages of your move for you: the visa routes your circumstances actually open, the region that fits your life, a real budget, your paperwork in order, and your first 90 days. Not a generic checklist. Your move, mapped, with someone who has done it.

An actual plan, not more guides
The free Essentials help you decide if Portugal is right for you. The Move Pack (€99) hands you the tools to do your whole move yourself: the ebook, the work-through course and the worksheets. The Personalised Plan does that whole move with you and hands you the answers, built around your exact circumstances. It is not another set of guides to read. It is an actual plan, written for your situation, telling you what to do and in what order. If your case has a wrinkle, an unusual income mix, a hesitant partner, a tight deadline, a complex family, this is the one that looks at you and tells you straight.
The Move Pack takes everyone through the same ten stages of a move. The Personalised Plan does all ten for you, built around your exact situation. Not generic chapters to work through, your answers, worked out with you.
Whether Portugal is right for you
A straight yes or no for your circumstances, with the reasons spelled out. No more wondering.
Your region
The actual towns to look at, named and ranked for your budget, weather and life. Not a list of everywhere.
Your budget
Your real numbers: what the move costs and what year one costs, for your household. Not an average.
Your visa
The one visa to apply for, and why the others will not work for you. A decision, not a pile of options.
Money and tax
How to move your money, and the tax you will actually pay, in plain figures for your case.
Where to live
Where to look, the rent to expect, and the scams to dodge in your areas. A plan, not go and research it.
Your paperwork
Your NIF, NISS, SNS and AIMA steps in the exact order to do them. A checklist you just follow.
The move itself
When to go, what to bring, and the exact order to do it in, so nothing trips you up.
Your first 90 days
A step-by-step roadmap for landing and getting set up, written for you.
Settling in and staying
Healthcare, finding your feet, and keeping your residency long term, in your town.
Plus, a human in your corner
A 60-minute 1:1 call with Claire
Personal and direct, focused entirely on your situation. You fill in a short intake form first, so we skip the basics.
Your written Fit Plan
Everything above pulled together into one plan, written for you after the call. Yours to keep, act on and share.
Private group and live group Q&As
A direct line for quick questions, plus ongoing access to our live group Q&A calls you can book into.
Priority access to scouting trips
First in line when we run small-group trips to see Portugal before you commit.
Sixty focused minutes, one to one. Because you have done the intake form first, we skip the basics and go straight to your decisions:
Your visa route, in plain terms
Which routes your income, savings and work genuinely open, and which to stop worrying about.
The number that matters
Whether your money clears the test for your situation, and what to do if it is close.
Where to actually look
A shortlist of regions and towns that fit your budget, climate and life, not the postcard.
Your biggest blocker
The one thing standing in your way, named and turned into a next step.
The order to do it in
What to do first, second and third, so nothing trips you up later.
Your plan is written for your situation, after we have talked. It is yours to keep and share, and it covers:
Your visa routes
Every lawful way your income, savings, work and family situation can qualify you, with the real trade-offs of each.
Where to live
Specific regions and towns matched to your budget, climate, healthcare and the life you want.
Your money and timeline
A realistic budget for your move and your first year, and a timeline that lines up with your visa and the school year.
Schools and family
If you are moving with children, real options for your shortlisted areas, and the visa maths for more than two.
Work and income
Realistic options for your case, whether remote, local or self-employed.
Healthcare and paperwork
What to expect, how to access it in your chosen region, and a checklist for your NIF, NISS, SNS and AIMA steps in the right order.

Why work with me
Four years ago I made this move myself, with a dozen browser tabs open and no one to tell me whether it would actually work. I built My Portugal Move so you do not have to learn it the hard way like I did. Relocation firms charge €1,760 to €4,750 to manage a move, and a single hour with an immigration lawyer runs €160 to €250. This is the human version, for €499.
This is for you if
Probably not for you if
Portugal now counts your years towards citizenship from the day your first residence card is issued, not from when you apply or arrive. For UK and US nationals the wait is now ten years, and AIMA appointments run months behind. The fastest thing you can do for your future passport is get a correct application in early. That is exactly what the plan is for: no wrong-visa false start, no missing-document delay, no months lost wondering what to do next.
The visa income thresholds also rise every January with the minimum wage. A plan built now is built against this year’s numbers, while you can still act on them.
I take no referral fees from lawyers, agents or paperwork services, so when your plan names a route or a service, it is because it is right for you, not because someone pays me. Every figure is checked against official sources and dated. Last verified 7 July 2026.
You pay first, fill in your intake form, then book your 60-minute call at a time that suits you using the link we send. There is nothing to book in advance.
As soon as your intake form is in and you have booked a slot. Most calls happen within a week or two of booking.
Because each plan is done personally, only a small number open each month. When the month is full, you can join the waitlist and we will let you know the moment a place opens.
That is exactly what the call and your guides are for. We look at how you actually earn and live, and map every route that genuinely fits, not just the obvious one.
You still have lawful options. Your plan covers the routes open to you, and we work out your path on the call.
No. It is personal decision support from lived experience. For legal or tax matters I point you to qualified professionals.
We work out your move together, properly. A small number of places open each month.
