How To Live In Italy: The Digital Nomad and Remote Worker Visas

from Only A Bag - An Italy Travel Podcast · host Darcy Melton | Nathaniel Mellor

To round up our series of episodes about visas, today we're talking about the digital nomad and remote worker visas. They are possibly the most complicated of the visas available mostly because there is less information about to how receive these visas compared to others like the student visa or elective residency visa. For more information on all of the visas we've talked about you can check out Nathaniel's article "How to Move to Italy: The Ultimate Guide for Americans (2025)." For more info about being a digital nomad in Italy check out some of our other articles here. In this episode we mention the list of "highly skilled" jobs that you must fall into to be approved for the digital nomad visa. You can find the list on the official government website here. At the beginning of this episode we mention the sad news of the passing of Pope Francis on Monday, April 21. We also touch on how the recently announced (and unrelated) Venice tourist tax could affect your travel this summer. Plus, we received a very helpful tip from a listener after last week's episode. They pointed out that, in March, Italy announced a decree which could affect the Jus Sanginis (or birthright visa) requirements. We will keep you updated with that as the final decision will be made in May. If you'd like to support the podcast you can donate to us on ⁠Ko-fi⁠. This fund will help us buy new equipment for the podcast, like new mics! For more information or to contact us you can go to onlyabag.com!Thank you all so much for listening!
