Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about intra-corporate transfers

Who qualifies for an intra-corporate transfer?

Typically managers, specialists, and trainees transferred within a multinational group to an Italian host entity for a defined assignment.

Do I need to be employed by the group for a minimum time?

Many programs require prior employment duration or experience. We assess your profile and build the correct evidence package.

Is this the same as a standard work visa?

Not necessarily. The transfer pathway is based on corporate relationships and assignments rather than open-market hiring.

Can my family come with me?

Dependents may be eligible through family pathways depending on timing and status. We advise on the best sequence to reduce risk.

What if my assignment changes after approval?

Changes can impact compliance. We recommend documenting amendments properly and verifying any requirements with local authorities.

What happens after I enter Italy?

You typically complete post-entry steps such as local registration and residence permit procedures. We provide a practical roadmap.
