Portugal client reviews
StartAbroad made the process easy and manageable. Anna is the BEST, she informed me of the necessary steps to get me to Portugal. StartAbroad helped with housing, needed documents, and the million questions I had. I highly recommend their services if you want an easy and very manageable process to travel and live overseas.
Joyce L.
Portugal Concierge Client
My work schedule doesn’t leave me much time to plan effectively and that’s why I’m glad I found… StartAbroad. From the first call with Anna, I knew she really listened to me and what I needed based on the questions she asked. By the time we had our next conversation, she had prepared my entire list of tasks and topics with timelines.
I know that some people will do this on their own and that’s great. But for me, this is money well spent and it gives me peace of mind.
Lorraine
Portugal Concierge Client
We greatly appreciated the personable…concierge service that StartAbroad offered. [They] listened to what we said and what we did not say and helped us plan a very fun, but strategic exploratory trip. We were able to see multiple cities during our very brief visit and have a lot of fun along the way.

Frequently asked questions
Can you put me in touch with a specialist?
Yes. While StartAbroad’s services are designed to be your one-stop-shop, if you would like to speak with a shipping specialist, medical provider, tax professional, or attorney that can manage your Inversionista, Rentista, or Pensionado visa, please send us an email at [email protected], and we can put you in touch with a vetted service
Your bundles aren't exactly what I'm looking for. Can I create a custom bundle?
Yes. Clients realize savings when they book two or more services via our bundled approach. While we do have standard bundles — including our Concierge Relocation Support and Digital Nomad Bundle — which meet many of our clients’ needs, if those bundles do not cover the type of support you are looking for, we will work with you to create a bundle of support services tailored specifically to you.
I just need to speak with an expert. Do you offer consultation calls?
Yes. We offer free 15-minute consultation calls. If you would like to spend more time on a call with an international relocation specialist, we offer coaching calls for 30 or 60 minutes.
