When you’re moving to Portugal, getting good quality, accurate information is not only important – it’s essential. You can find a lot of the information you need on blogs, in the many different expat Facebook groups, and on YouTube, but it can be hard to know how accurate the information is. A lot of the information can contradict each other and it can be difficult to know which sources to trust. 

Thankfully, there are now a few books and courses about moving to Portugal. Moving to Portugal Made Simple, a book produced by Portugalist, is one of them, but it’s not the only one. It’s also not a course, which may be what you’re looking for.  

There are now several courses about moving to Portugal, most of which are made by other expats who’ve made the move here. Often priced at several hundred euros each, these courses aren’t cheap, but having accurate information is something that’s always worth paying for. 

Don’t forget there are several helpful books on Portugal too. There are also quite a few online courses that cover learning Portuguese, something you’ll most likely want to do if you’re moving here.
