Post new topic

We have a valid type D visa for multiple entries to Italy also a passport that is accepted for 90 day visa free travel in Schengen but are also holding ‘receipt’ .   Can we travel freely in Schengen area whilst waiting for the permesso. Or does the ‘receipt’ override everything else.
