Portugal Golden Visa - The New Law of 2023

Yes, this is confusing however it is not something which comes with the proposed law. The current regulation is also the same. When I received my first card about a month ago my lawyer advised me to spend 7 days during the first year of the card although the card is valid for two years. When I asked whether I can do 14 days within 2 years instead, they told me that although SEF started issuing the first card for two years during the pandemic, the legislation pertaining to the minimum stay requirements did not change so the law still reads β€œ7 days within the first year”.
