Anyone except native Portuguese and EU/EFTA citizens - can apply for the Golden Visa Program.
After completing a suitable investment into the Portuguese economy, you will be eligible to apply for Portuguese permanent residency.
You can bring your family members, including your spouse, as well as your children (as long as they are younger than 18 at the time of application, or they are enrolled in studies and being supported by you). In certain circumstances, you can even bring your parents and/or in-laws, as long as you can demonstrate that you are supporting them.
The Portuguese Golden Visa programmes requirements will vary according to your level of Investment, However a property investor is required to complete the following, to be eligible to apply for Citizenship:

The invested funds must come from outside of Portugal;

Eligibility for this residency program is also available to non EU residents, who conduct an investment activity, as an individual business person or through a company set up in Portugal, or in another EU Member State, and who, in addition, are stably settled in Portugal,
Depending on the investment path and provided these applicants fulfil the legal requirements and the time requirements set out by the relevant Portuguese legislation, then they may apply for a Residence Permit for Investment.
The investment can be made as an individual or through a legal entity meeting certain requirements. You will also need to meet the (minimal) physical presence requirements.
