As one of the highly developed nations, Italy has been deeply favored by immigrants from various countries in recent years. Italy itself possesses a rich cultural atmosphere, beautiful scenery, high-quality education, and, combined with comprehensive welfare and straightforward immigration policies, it holds immense appeal. The requirements for immigrating to Italy can actually vary depending on individual circumstances, allowing for different immigration policies to be adopted. Based on a comparative analysis, the property investment immigration route remains the most popular policy among applicants.
I. Requirements for Immigrating to Italy
1. Property Investment Immigration to Italy
When it comes to Italian immigration, the property investment program is undoubtedly the most popular among applicants. Applicants only need to purchase residential property in Italy, and the Italian Embassy in China can issue a "Selective Residence Visa." The specific requirements are that the main applicant must be at least 18 years old, in good health, and have no criminal record. They must purchase property in Italy with a value of no less than 300,000 Euros, with a per capita area of no less than 22 square meters. Additionally, proof of non-employment income of at least 31,000 Euros per year is required to obtain the visa. Relatively speaking, the requirements for this Italian immigration route are considered quite simple.
2. Investment Category
In 2012, to support small and medium-sized enterprises, Italy encouraged overseas investors to establish new companies in Italy or invest in "innovative start-ups" recognized by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development to obtain a start-up visa. The requirements for this type of Italian immigration are that the applicant must be a non-EU resident aged 18 or older, possess 100,000 Euros in bank deposits with a verifiable legal source, and have a legal income of at least 8,400 Euros per year.
Regarding the two Italian immigration policies mentioned above, which program an applicant should choose depends on their own actual circumstances. Generally speaking, the majority of people still choose the property investment immigration policy.
