Hi, I would like know about Portugal D2 visa stay requirement outside the Portugal territory more than Six months. Example if my spouse run the business and if i make it as business partner will be enough to cover my stay out requirement. Because i want to work apply offshore which more pay and i want to explore my experience since i have the scope . Please advise. I will keep my account active with money so that tax could be paid regular basis even through i am out of Portugal. May be i could be stay more than two months with multiple entry with 15 days stay in portugal but would be six time entry and exit even more.
