The problem
Our Indian client, a business owner and single parent was looking for long-term residency in a country that would ensure quality education and safety for his daughter. With a successful business set-up in his home country, he could not consider relocating as it would limit his growth opportunities. At the same time, he wanted to secure a bright future for his daughter ensuring world-class education but was also wary about her well-being and safety. Above all, recently divorced, it was challenging for the client to procure documents for his daughter.
The solution
When the client approached Savory & Partners, we considered the many sentiments involved including that of a father, a dedicated businessman and a single parent. We understood his requirement and prepared a strategy that would not only serve his personal life positively but would see his business grow by leaps.
We recommended Portugal, not just for the simplicity of obtaining a residence permit but its exceptional education system and healthcare. Portugal is known for its outstanding higher education institutions.
Portugal has a lot of different immigration options available. The passive income - the D7 visa, the newly christened Digital Nomad Visa and the option that is tailor-made for businessowners - the Portuguese D2 visa.
Our client could fulfill his residency requirements while also maintaining an active management role in his company without worrying about spending too much time outside of Portugal.
With residential flexibility of the Golden Visa, his daughter could relocate to Portugal immediately and he could fulfil his residency requirements while also maintaining an active management role in his company back home without worrying about spending too much time outside of Portugal. As of 2021, Portugal is globally ranked in the top ten in terms of ease of registering a company. Meaning our client would not only go ahead and bring his existing business to Portugal but could venture into new business opportunities across Europe.
Approaching Savory & Partners to undertake his residency application ensured that the client would have all the necessary documents for himself and his daughter ready on time. Our agents oversaw that all requirements for a successful due diligence were also fulfilled.

Egypt, located in the northeastern corner of Africa, holds a significant place in the world both geographically and historically. Its heartland, the fertile Nile River valley and delta, has been a cradle of civilisation for millennia, supporting the rise of one of the most influential societies of the ancient world. The ancient Egyptian civilization is renowned for its monumental achievements in architecture, art, and governance. Iconic landmarks such as the Pyramids of Giza, the Great Sphinx, and the temples of Luxor and Karnak continue to captivate visitors with their grandeur and historical importance.
In addition to its ancient heritage, Egypt today stands as one of Africa’s most industrialised nations. The economy is supported by a diverse range of sectors, with oil and gas exports playing a vital role, particularly through the Suez Canal—a strategic waterway connecting the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea, facilitating global trade. Tourism, driven by Egypt’s rich cultural heritage and natural beauty, remains a cornerstone of the economy, drawing millions of visitors annually to its historical sites, as well as to the Red Sea resorts like Sharm El-Sheikh and Hurghada.
Egypt’s economic structure is increasingly dominated by its service sector, which accounts for around half of the nation's GDP. The country has made strides in developing industries such as telecommunications, financial services, and transportation. Moreover, the Egyptian government continues to pursue economic reforms to boost foreign investment, infrastructure development, and technological innovation, all of which are key drivers for the nation’s long-term growth.
Egypt is located in the northeastern corner of Africa, with a small portion of its territory, the Sinai Peninsula, extending into Asia.
Egypt's strategic location connects Africa and the Middle East, making it historically and geopolitically significant.
