Immigration to Italy

The Italian work permit scheme is administered regionally, so implementation differs significantly depending on the exact destination within Italy.

Italian work permits must be sponsored by an Italian company. They cannot be applied for directly by a potential employee or by an agency.

Processing times vary between regions, but the average is about two months.

Italy does not recognise the Van der Elst ruling of the EU court. If you would like further details, please contact us.
