Lifeset Overseas does NOT process work permits. Work permits require a separate MEA Recruiting Agent (RA) licence under the Emigration Act, which we do not hold. Our PTA Licence (No. 849/DC/PTA/PLA/LC-3/2024) covers visa consultancy only — study, permanent residency, visitor, family, and CAIPS/GCMS support. This page exists so you understand the work-permit pathway, not because we can apply for it on your behalf.

Italy Employment Visa
Information on the long-stay visa for subordinate (employer-sponsored) work in Italy.

- Your guideOne consultant
The Italy Employment Visa is a long-stay Type D visa for subordinate work — that is, working in Italy for an Italian employer. The process is employer-driven: the Italian employer applies for a Nulla Osta al Lavoro (work authorisation) through the Sportello Unico, within Italy's annual Decreto Flussi quota, before any visa application is made.
This page is provided for awareness only. Lifeset Overseas does not process work-related visas — they fall under a separate licensing regime. If your aim is to build a future in Italy, a study visa with a graduate pathway, or a permanent-residency route in another country, is often the stronger and fully supportable plan. We are glad to talk it through honestly with you.
A real way forward
Work visas aren’t our licence — a real route to Italy is.
Employer-driven work visas need a separate licence we don't hold — so this page is information only. But if your real goal is to build a future in Italy, we can help with a study route, a family route, or permanent residency where it exists. Talk to us and we'll map the honest path that actually works for you.

We assess your profile and show you which Italy pathway can realistically work for you.
