Now that Brexit is finally here, one of the big questions asked by Brits abroad is about residency in another country. If you live in Italy, then you must register as a resident there if you plan to stay for more than three months. If you do so before the end of the transition period which ends on 31st December 2020, then you won’t have any problems and you’ll be allowed to stay in Italy.
How to register as an Italian resident:
The Italian government and British Embassy in Italy are urging all Brits who live in Italy are to register their presence in the country and request an "attestazione di soggiorno" (residence permit) from the registry office in their council area as soon as possible.
British citizens are eligible to register for residence if they correspond to any of the following requirements:
- Employed in Italy - and can show a copy of their work contract.
- Registered self-employed
- A student
- None of the above but the individuals have proof that they have sufficient income to not be a burden on public funds.
In the case of students and those who are not employed (pensioners for example), a private healthcare policy is often required in order to be able to obtain residency. If you’re lucky enough to have some Italian blood, then a better option may be to apply for Italian citizenship.
Although the word Brexit can fill us all with fear, those living inn Italy have nothing to worry about. On several occasions, the Italian government has reassured British citizens in Italy that their rights won’t change as long as they register as residents in Italy and this includes all rights, such as the right to work and to healthcare.
