Italy
Emigrating to Italy
Ga je voor het schitterende Toscane, het rauwe zuiden of ben je toch meer een stadsmens en valt jouw keuze op Milaan of Rome? Wat je ook kiest; Benvenuto in Italia! Maar let op: ben jij wel klaar voor La Dolce Vita? Bij een emigratie komt namelijk veel kijken. Dan hebben wij het niet alleen over het vele geregel in je huidige woning in Nederland, maar ook moet je nadenken over al het papierwerk dat in Italië in orde moet worden gemaakt. Daarom willen wij jou, als mondiaal verhuisspecialist, graag ontzorgen. Lees je met ons mee?
Why do people choose La Dolce Vita?
Italy: the land of warm culture, fresh pasta, and sprawling vineyards. And we haven’t even mentioned the beautiful language. “Buongiorno, un caffè, per favore.” Can you already imagine yourself sitting on a terrace every morning? Based on experiences from our own clients, here are ten reasons to move to Italy:

10 reasons to move to Italy
- The Mediterranean climate is far better than in the Netherlands.
- The cost of living is significantly lower than in Northern European countries.
- The Housing prices are much more favorable.
- People have an open and warm personality, and the family-centered approach creates a better work-life balance.
- Healthcare is top-notch. Public healthcare, known as the servizio sanitario nazionale (SSN), is accessible to everyone.
- Nature abounds—from the landscapes of Tuscany to 250 beaches and the mountains in the Alps and Dolomites. Italy is incredibly diverse.
- Children receive more encouragement in school than in the Netherlands.
- Dining out is a way of life and connection. Will you choose an Osteria, Trattoria, or Ristorante?
- Depending on the location, Italy is generally less densely populated than the Netherlands, offering more space and tranquility for less cost.
Transport possibilities
Wij bieden je vier verhuismogelijkheden aan:
Excellent: Volledig ontzorgd worden en jij bepaalt de verhuisdata! Alles wordt voor je geregeld. Van verhuisdozen, tot inpakken, laden en lossen.

Emigrating without stress
First of all, prepare very thoroughly! Bring in several specialists to relieve you and your family of stress. Arranging everything will take more time than it would if you were moving within the Netherlands. Italian bureaucracy is very different from Dutch bureaucracy. Paperwork can take longer, and as a Dutch person, you might find yourself amazed by how things operate there. So, our tip is to start your preparations early.
Dagelijks krijgen wij te maken met verhuizingen naar het buitenland en daarom herkennen wij vaak snel waar mensen tegenaan lopen. Schroom niet om al je vragen bij ons neer te leggen. Wij verzorgen met alle liefde het gehele verhuisproces voor je. Van deur tot deur.
To take into account...
Don't forget to...
- Apply for a codice fiscale immediately. Go to the L’ Agenzia delle Entrate with your passport to request your tax number. With this number, you can apply for and purchase all kinds of things, like opening a bank account.
- Register with the local municipality as residenza or domicilio. You’re a resident if you’re fully emigrating to Italy. Domicilio applies if you have a second home in Italy.
- Remember that anyone paying taxes in Italy is entitled to free public healthcare through theservizio sanitario nazionale'(SSN). Of course, you also have the option to purchase private health insurance in Italy.
Finally (and trust us), here are the most important tips!
- Eat pasta with a fork.
- Only order cappuccino before 11:00 am.
- Spaghetti Bolognese doesn’t exist; Bolognese sauce is served with tagliatelle or lasagna.
- Never ask for a pizza with pineapple 😉
