Did the Elective Residency Visa Just Get Easier? Rome Court Ruling Explained

A recent court decision in Rome has addressed income requirements for those applying for Italy’s elective residency visa, also known as the retirement visa, which allows financially self-sufficient individuals to relocate to Italy without working. While this visa is often associated with retirees, it is also open to anyone with adequate passive income, such as pensions, investment returns, or rental income. The administrative court’s decision, which may potentially ease the path for families, clarified how income thresholds apply to household members. In this episode of the Italian Real Estate Podcast hosted by Italian attorney Marco Permunian and dual citizen expat podcaster Rafael Di Furia, we’ll learn more about the elective residency visa, its requirements, and the implications of this recent court ruling.
