About this episode
The Italian Golden Visa allows non-EU nationals to obtain residency in Italy by making a qualifying investment. Eligibility is based on the type and minimum amount of investment, whether family members such as a spouse and dependent children can be included, and which options qualify, since direct real estate purchases are excluded in favor of business investments, government bonds, or philanthropic contributions. This visa is often discussed alongside Italy’s flat tax regime for new residents who transfer their tax residency to Italy.
