Move to Italy on a real Italian work contract
An Italian work visa needs an employer in Italy. If the company that wants you has no Italian entity, we become your legal employer: we sponsor the permit, sign your Italian contract and run your payroll, while you keep working for the company that chose you.
€250 per employee per month, all inclusive, invoiced in EUR or USD at the EUR reference rate with no FX spread. Visa and permit handling €2,500 per case (pricing).

Common questions
Can my current employer abroad keep me after I move?
Yes. We employ you in Italy and invoice your employer monthly. You keep your team, your manager and your work. See the page for your employer.
Do I need a job offer before applying?
For a work permit, yes: the nulla osta is tied to a specific employer, role and salary. We provide the Italian employer; the job and the salary come from the company you work for.
How long does it take?
The Blue Card nulla osta has a 30-day legal deadline. Consular appointments and arrival formalities add time that varies by country. [typical end-to-end timelines from our own cases]
