The law considers the following members to be granted the Golden Visa status:
Non-EU nationals holding a Portuguese Student Permit are eligible to be accompanied by parents, minor or dependent children, or the spouse’s children, or any minor children adopted. You will need to provide proof of their partnership and they will need to apply for the visas and permits they need.
The Law allows the Family Reunification with children fully aged (+18) if they comply with the following:

You are eligible to apply for an autonomous resident permit within the initial two-year reunion visa period in exceptional cases like divorce or death of a member to which your golden visa family reunification is tied. In these cases, you will be requested to submit specific documentation.
Your relatives can apply for family reunification for the same duration as your temporary permit (issued for a maximum period of 5 years). Your relatives will be granted a renewable permit, though they have to prove that they have sufficient funds when applying.
