Italy’s program is small, efficient and increasingly attractive: a two-year renewable residence for investors, with committee decisions in about 30 days and no backlog. Applications have roughly doubled in two years. Qualifying routes include government bonds, an Italian company, an innovative startup, or a philanthropic donation; we confirm current thresholds at intake and structure the choice around your balance sheet.
From our Milan office, our Italian team led by our Regional Partner handles the online application, the nulla osta, the visa and the residence permit, plus the tax planning conversation Italy now demands, including the flat tax regime for new residents, revised in the 2026 budget.
Family members join. Physical presence requirements are light. The route pairs naturally with Italy’s flat tax for new residents; our tax counsel briefs you before you commit.
