Before moving their household goods from abroad to Italy, all foreigners must have certain Italian documents in order:
- codice fiscale (fiscal code number);- permesso di soggiorno (stay permit);
If you are a member of the European Union, you don't really need to have other documents.
plus, for non-EU citizens:
- residenza (residency status certificate or receipt for request of one);- nulla osta TV-radio (import authorization for TV and radio, if applicable); They must also have several copies of the inventory list.
When the above documentation cannot be produced, some moving companies can negotiate the payment of a bond so as to clear customs.
