The purpose of the Programa Regressar is to support emigrants, as well as their descendants and other relatives, so that they have the best conditions to return to Portugal and make the most of the opportunities that currently exist in our country.

The Programa Regressar involves all governmental areas and includes specific measures such as tax benefits for those returning, financial assistance for emigrants or relatives of emigrants who come to work in Portugal and a credit line to support business investment and the creation of new business ventures in Portugal, among others.

In order to ensure the implementation of the Programa Regressar in articulation with the governmental areas responsible for their implementation, communicate it among the Portuguese Diaspora, simplify the procedural steps of the return processes and clarify doubts, a project structure was created referred to as the Ponto de Contacto para o Regresso do Emigrante.
