Post Study Work VISA

International students enrolled in Italian institutions qualify for a post-study work visa as follows-

Residence Permit (Permesso di Soggiorno): Non-EU students, depending on their course and university, are eligible to apply for a residence permit allowing them to remain in Italy for 6 to 12 months post-graduation.

Moreover, internships lasting up to 12 months are also an option. To apply for the post-study work visa, students must provide various supporting documents, including a temporary residence permit, evidence of a minimum five-year residency in Italy, a police clearance certificate, passport details, proof of accommodation within Italy, and valid health insurance coverage.
2. Work Permit (Permesso di Lavoro): Upon securing employment, transitioning to a work permit is possible. For a work permit application, gather the necessary paperwork including the letter of appointment by the employer.
