Hello. The customs will vary somewhat depending upon which region you choose. I always just suggest that folks new to Italy pay close attention and learn from the locals. Most Italians do not speak English, especially outside of the tourist ... Read More

Hello. Unless you had a serious situation that prohibited you from renewing the Permesso on time, you'll most likely be made to start all over. Read More

Since you have exceeded the time limit of being off of Italian soil, you will need to start from scratch, that will most likely include a valid visa. You will not be able to apply for a Permesso without it. Nonetheless, you can enter Italy with ... Read More
