Portugal’s NHR 2.0 tax regime is changing the landscape for expats—and especially Americans—looking to relocate, invest, or build businesses abroad. In this episode of Gimme Some Truth, hosts Nate Condon and Stan sit down with Zeev Fisher, founder of Fresh Portugal, to break down what the new Non-Habitual Resident (NHR 2.0) program really means.

Zeev shares real-world insights from working with international clients, including American expats, entrepreneurs, and digital professionals navigating Portugal’s legal and tax systems.
