Frequently asked questions
Yes. You may enter and stay in Italy while your application (“court petition”) is under review. However, if you plan to remain longer than the 90 days allowed for visa-exempt visitors, you must obtain a valid residence permit. Before traveling, check whether you qualify for any of the existing permits (e.g. work, study, family reunification).
No. Your obligation to pay taxes in Italy depends on your status as a tax resident, not on your citizenship. If you acquire Italian citizenship but do not establish tax residency in Italy, you are not required to declare income or pay Italian taxes. Only those who qualify as Italian tax residents, meaning they live in Italy for the majority of the year or have their personal or economic interests centered here, are subject to Italy’s tax regime.
