| If you are living in UK, or any other country, the following article will help you determine the best way to buy an Italian Home
To buy a property in Le Marche Italy all that is required is that you have an Italian tax code. This can be requested at any Ufficio Delle Entrate in your area. From now onwards you’ll be asked for the codice fiscale every step of the way – when you open a bank account, when you arrange connection of utilities like electricity, water, gas and the phone – just about any situation in which you need to identify yourself in Italy!
However, if you then want to permanently reside in Italy and buy a property in Italy you’ll have to apply for a residency from the Comune in which you wish to reside, then apply to the Office if Immigration in your area for the permesso di soggiorno for residency. A supposedly straightforward affair for EU citizens, that is in fact, rather tiresome, given the number of documents required at each stage - copies of passports, copies of photos of yourself, certified copies of marriage certificates, certified copies of birth cerificates of children stating name of mother and father, copies of residence certificate, copy of contract to buy a house, or rent an apartment, copies of engagement of work or if self employed copy of partita iva (VAT) and registration to the local chamber of commerce. |
