Elective Residence Visa (ERV)
The Italian Elective Residence Visa (ERV) allows entry to Italy for foreign nationals – retired persons, families, and individuals with high self-sustaining incomes and financial assets – who have chosen Italy for the purpose of a long-term stay, for a fixed or indefinite period, and who are able to support themselves autonomously, without having to rely on any form of employment while in Italy.
