The application for a digital nomad must be submitted at the Italian consulate or embassy of the country where the worker lives and he has to show all the documents proving the existence of the requirements to obtain the visa. After the arrival in Italy, and in any case within a period of 8 days, the digital nomad worker has to require at the Italian authorities a residency permit valid for one year and renewable. Italy's digital nomad visa leaves the opportunity to come to Italy with the family - spouse and children - and can be renewed regardless of the days effectively spent in Italy. As to fiscal and social security aspects, we suggest to follow the information provided by the Italian consulates and Embassies.
