The Italy Digital Nomad Visa is a legal residence pathway for non‑EU citizens who work remotely using digital technologies. It allows highly qualified professionals to live in Italy while continuing to work for foreign employers or clients, without entering the Italian labour market.

The visa grants the right to reside in Italy, access healthcare and education, and travel freely within the Schengen Area. It is issued as a long‑stay visa and converted into a residence permit after arrival in Italy.
