Once the investor has entered Italy with the Investor Visa, the next step is to apply for the Italian Permit of Stay for Investors (Permesso di Soggiorno per Investitori).
IMPORTANT: within 3 months from entry date, the investor must execute the investment (which has been approved by the Minsitry) and upload proving documents in the Ministry’s portal.
The Italian Investor visa was only introduced in January 2017 and, due to its nature and restrictive requirements for the capital investments, there have not been many applications for this kind of permit since. Not all police stations are aware of and accept to follow the regulations on prioritization of investors’ applications. Some police officers tend to request for additional documents that generally do not apply to this particular permit category.
The immigration process of family members of investors can also be particularly challenging, especially given the recent introduction of the regulations concerning the families of investor visa holders.
How we can help you: Thanks to our experience, we can liaise with the competent offices to make sure that the regulations are correctly followed and, at the same time, easing the communication between the investor and the officers.
