As the company has shared, in November alone, a total of 95 visa and residence permit inquiries were made by American nationals, with the highest demand being recorded only one day before the US elections, on November 4.

Of the total number of these requests, almost 90 per cent of Americans who contacted the Ei! Assessoria Migratória were interested in the D7 Visa of Portugal.

The D7 Visa of Portugal, also known as the Portugal Passive Income Visa, grants residency to non-EU nationals who have a steady passive income.

Taking this into consideration, retirees, those who have a regular and stable income, and investors have shown the highest interest in the D7 Visa of Portugal. As Politico notes, within the last month, 71 inquiries were made for this type of visa.

Ei! Assessoria Migratória data show that there was also interest in Portugal’s D8 Visa. A number of Americans made questions about this type of visa and the procedures that must be followed to obtain the document.

The D8 Visa of Portugal, widely known as the Digital Nomad Visa, allows remote workers to apply for a one-year temporary stay visa or a residence permit and legally reside in the country.

Interest in Portugal’s Golden Visa among Americans has also increased, but there is still no available data on numbers.

Americans’ Searches for Migration & Relocation to EU Increased by 1,514% Following Trump’s Victory Announcement

As soon as the announcement that Trump won the elections was made, American internet users started to search extensively for migration opportunities to the bloc.

VisaGuide.World said last month that the searches of American internet users for migration and relocation to the EU increased by 1,514 per cent.

While there was an increased interest in almost all EU countries, the most sought-after destinations among Americans were Ireland, Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, and Portugal.

These destinations were explored by Americans due to some of them having great affordability, some having a warm climate, and some providing a smooth integration for English speakers.
