How I work
EU citizens have the right to reside in Italy but must complete certain formalities, such as registering with the local registry office (iscrizione anagrafica) after the first three months. Different rules apply to non-EU family members and to non-EU nationals.
I build the application around your actual situation, setting out the documents, timescales and competent Italian offices.
The Netherlands is a European logistics hub: many companies that sell or manufacture in Italy are based or operate there.
Common situations
- An EU citizen moving permanently to Italy
- A non-EU spouse or child who needs to join you
- A long-term resident of Netherlands who wants to work in Italy
- Hiring staff from Amsterdam to work in Italy
- An application for Italian citizenship
