    Partner — Real Estate & Immigration and Citizenship at Antas da Cunha ECIJA

    João de Moraes Vaz is a Partner at Antas da Cunha ECIJA in Real Estate and Immigration & Citizenship. The Portuguese Bar lists him active in Lisbon under cédula 52541L, registered on 5 November 2013. His official profile covers real-estate and commercial matters, relocation to Portugal, Golden Visa processes and labour immigration. Property acquisition no longer qualifies as a new ARI route, so his real-estate experience is not presented as current property-based Golden Visa eligibility.
