    O que é o programa Tech Visa para Portugal e suas mudanças em 2022

    Programa de sucesso e com alta procura desde o seu lançamento em 2018, o Tech Visa busca atrair profissionais altamente qualificados não residentes da UE para posições específicas dentro de empresas de Portugal. 

    O programa passou por grandes mudanças em 2022 e aumentou sua área de abrangência, não mais restringindo a emissão de vistos a empresas de tecnologia e inovação. Aqui, vamos explicar o que é o programa, quais as suas principais alterações e quais os caminhos para aplicar ao Tech Visa para trabalhar em Portugal.

    O que é o Tech Visa e o que mudou em 2022?

    O programa Tech Visa é um dos programas de concessão de vistos criado pelo governo português que visa atrair para Portugal profissionais inseridos no mercado global com alta qualificação para quadros e funções especializadas em empresas nacionais que estejam estabelecidas em território lusitano. 

    Originalmente direcionado exclusivamente para profissionais de áreas de tecnologia e inovação, como induz o nome do programa, o Tech Visa teve como grande mudança no ano de 2022 a exclusão desta restrição de áreas, abrangendo agora toda entidade – seja qual for sua forma jurídica, que exerça oferta de bens ou serviços de mercado e atividades econômicas.

    Critérios e mudanças para certificação de empresas 

    Para que o programa possa ser aplicável, a empresa contratante precisa ser certificada e fazer parte do Tech Visa – e as mudanças também referem-se aos critérios para essa certificação. 

    Anteriormente, era requisito obrigatório que a empresa desenvolvesse atividade de produção de bens e/ou serviços internacionalizáveis, isto é, passíveis de exportação. Agora, entretanto, é necessário apenas que a companhia disponha de estabelecimento estável em território nacional, desenvolvendo atividades cujo o exercício requeira competências técnicas especializadas, o que garante o caráter excepcional do programa, que objetiva buscar mão de obra qualificada para a cessão do visto.

    Ainda com base nas mudanças de critérios, outro ponto relevante para a certificação das empresas é que, se não é mais necessário que o produto/serviço em si seja internacionalizável, ele deve ser passível de ser exposto à concorrência internacional e que possa ser objeto de troca internacional, ou, no caso dos centros de interface tecnológico ou dos laboratórios colaborativos, possuir uma atividade econômica de prestação de serviços a empresas com atividade de produção de bens e serviços internacionalizáveis.

    Deveres e obrigações das empresas

    Dentre os diversos deveres contratuais que as empresas certificadas precisam garantir para aplicarem ao programa Tech Visa, uma das obrigações é a formalização do contrato de trabalho ou de prestação de serviço com duração mínima de 12 meses, e com vencimento anual mínimo equivalente a 2,5 vezes o IAS (indexante dos apoios sociais), e no caso de mudanças de posição do trabalhador dentro da empresa, emitir adendos contratuais, atualizando sua colocação dentro da empresa em Portugal.

    Outra obrigação é a necessidade de fazer a atualização da área de acompanhamento dos termos de responsabilidade de forma constante na plataforma do programa Tech Visa, de modo a indicar e identificar a utilização do visto, do pedido de autorização residencial e a situação contratual.

    Como participar do Tech Visa Portugal?

    Como grande parte dos programas de cessão de vistos de trabalho mundo afora, o Tech Visa de Portugal tem, além de diversas exigências, algumas restrições que buscam filtrar e selecionar de forma mais precisa os agraciados com o permissão de trabalho e residência no país. 

    O programa começa pelas empresas, pois elas precisam ser credenciadas pelo governo para que seja possível aplicar por essa categoria de visto. Ou seja, não basta conseguir um emprego em Portugal, é preciso que essa empresa faça parte do Tech Visa.

    Atente-se aos salários

    Como o programa tem como objetivo atrair profissionais altamente qualificados e para posições específicas, é natural – e necessário – que a remuneração atenda aos critérios e à média salarial do país. Em empresas de tecnologia, por exemplo, o piso é de 1.097€.

    Portugal não é conhecido por aplicar os melhores salários da Europa, razão esta, inclusive, que reforça a função do programa: buscar profissionais qualificados em mercados globais além da UE, oferecendo remunerações, por exemplo, maiores que as do Brasil.

    O primeiro passo para conseguir aplicar ao Visa Tech, portanto, seria buscar por empresas certificadas em sites de busca de empregos portugueses. No Indeed, por exemplo, é possível aplicar um filtro que exibe apenas vagas que se adequem à categoria do Visa Tech.

    Após o processo de seleção, é necessário também separar a documentação exigida para entrar com a solicitação do visto. No processo de visto é gerado um Termo de Responsabilidade com um código de validação, esse termo é registrado no site do IAPMEI e consultado pelo SEF no processo. O pedido deve ser realizado pela VFS Global, empresa que é responsável por processar a documentação e enviá-la para o SEF. 

    Como se trata de um visto prioritário, em geral solicitado em conjunto com as empresas certificadas, o processo costuma ser mais rápido do que o tradicional. Após a emissão do visto via Tech Visa é possível embarcar para Portugal e começar a atividade de trabalho na empresa contratante.

    Conclusão

    Para saber de mais detalhes e descobrir outras categorias de visto de trabalho oferecidos pelo governo de Portugal, acesse o site oficial do Ministério dos Negócios Estrangeiros, setor responsável pela análise, aprovação e emissão de documentos para residentes de fora da União Europeia.

    Por fim, é importante contar com uma equipe de assessoria especializada e advogados para orientar durante todo o processo, para tirar as dúvidas relacionadas à burocracias e realizar tudo com mais segurança. Boa sorte!

    Vivian Perfeito is AMAZING!!! We had two previous immigration attorneys who failed us miserably and we were ready to throw in the towel. Our Realtor, Bruno Silva recommended Vivian and we decided to give it one last shot. She exceeded expectations and seamlessly helped us obtain our D7 visa and residency card. She accompanied us to the appointment, spent time managing our difficult case and was kind, professional and lovely to work with. Vivian is a ROCK STAR, i would recommend her to anyone going through this process. She is very intelligent, organized, a good communicator, and answers emails quickly. Our only regret is not finding her a year ago!

    I took a chance with going to see Vivian because I am hesitant about finding someone online. But, not knowing many people in PT, and after seeing Vivian speaking confidently and concisely on YouTube links and sharing knowledge generously, I made an appointment and went to see her about my current and future residency status. Vivian is a warm and intelligent lawyer, and gave me quality time, and quickly gained an insight into what would be the best way forward for me. We have just started the process but I feel confident she knows her stuff, and has my best interests at heart, a rare quality to find in any person.

    Hello my name is Randy Rava. I decided to move to Portugal 🇵🇹. I found Vivian Perfeito on internet. She is worth every penny. Vivian was there for me every step of the way. Her fees are very low, she was always there for me and she always answered my emails and gave me good direction. She is very honest and kind. She put in much more time with me and helped me in many ways. If you want to immigrate to Portugal 🇵🇹 without the help of a lawyer it would be foolish because of the many mistakes that you would make that would cost you valuable time and money. I found Vivian Perfeito and she is a blessing because she knows exactly what to do at every point in the process, her fees are very reasonable and she is very honest and reliable. Without her knowledge of Portuguese law I would have made mistake after mistake and would never have even known it. I highly recommend Vivian Perfeito Advogada extrordinare the finest most skilled lawyer in all of Portugal.

    So far I had one call with Dra. Vivian, and I could already see that she is a very nice person who is very knowledgable about her domain. She was able to answer all my questions as well as recommend other people to me who could help me. She actually cares about her client's cases and takes her time to study the case (via email) before joining the call to give the best experience. I highly recommend Dra. Vivian
    My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of working with Vivian for drafting and reviewing a rental contract. Vivian's warmth, responsiveness, and genuine friendliness made the entire process a breeze for both of us. She not only showed incredible professionalism but also made us feel like valued clients every step of the way. With Vivian's expertise and delightful personality, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We wholeheartedly recommend Vivian to anyone in need of legal assistance. Thank you, Vivian, for your exceptional service!! :)

    My wife and I made a decision to start our immigration process in October of 2023. Vivian was recommended to us around that same time.We both appreciate everything Vivian has helped us with through the process. We are now waiting on our visa. Vivian has proved very knowledgeable and without her help, we would have struggled. Her communication has always been excellent and never missed a meeting. We communicated in English with no problems. Her dedication and experience are highly rated by us.
    Dr Vivian was incredibly kind to deal with. She is very confident and knows her job very well, preparing my emigration to Portugal. Her vast legal knowledge leaves me safe and confident in future decisions regarding the purchase or rental of property, avoiding the traps and tricks so common in this segment.
