Italian Digital Nomad and Remote Worker Visa – The right to family unity

The Italian Digital Nomad and Remote Worker Visa allows non-EU professionals to live and work remotely from Italy, offering an attractive path for modern mobile workers. However, one crucial aspect is the right to family unity.

Fortunately, an alternative exists: the family accompaniment visa, which allows spouses and dependent children to join the applicant immediately, provided income and housing requirements are met.
