How much does registering with AIRE cost?

AIRE is one of very few Italian obligations where complying costs nothing and not complying can cost up to five thousand euros. The useful question is not what registration costs, but what skipping it costs.

How much does an Italian work visa cost?

A work visa falls within Italy's long-stay national visas: the consular offices checked list EUR 116. It is an administrative fee, not the full budget for relocating or starting work in Italy.

How much does an Italian study visa cost?

A study visa does not follow the ordinary national-visa price: for stays over 90 days Italian consular offices list EUR 50, not EUR 116. The real bill can rise through documents, an outside visa centre and travel, but those items have no single national amount.

Frequently asked questions

Does Italian residence permit always cost EUR 116.46?

No. EUR 116.46 is the ordinary or most quotable figure within the source's scope. Exemptions, concessions, ticket duration or outside services can move the cost.

Italian residence permit
Is AIRE registration really free?

Yes. Italian consular offices apply no fee to an application to join the register of Italians resident abroad: the page of the Italian Consulate General in London states expressly that the procedures are free of charge, and the page of the Consulate General in Los Angeles lists no consular fee for this step. Subsequent updates, such as a change of address within the same district, are free as well. Consular services distinct from registration do remain chargeable under their own schedules — issuing or renewing a passport, for instance.

Does an Italian work visa always cost EUR 116?

The consular fee for a long-stay national visa is listed at EUR 116 by the offices checked, and the Addis Ababa page expressly includes employed work. That does not mean the whole process costs only EUR 116: the applicant may still pay for documents, translations, travel or a visa-centre service fee. The certain number is the consular fee.

Italian work visa
Does an Italian study visa cost EUR 50 or EUR 116?

For a type D national visa for study, the consular offices checked list EUR 50. EUR 116 is the price for ordinary long-stay national visas, such as work, elective residence or family reasons, but it is not the correct figure for study when the table separates that case. Short-stay study or training trips may also qualify for exemptions, so the competent consulate's page must always be checked.

Italian study visa
Does the price apply across Italy?

It depends on the service. When the source is national, the figure is treated as an Italian reference. When the source is municipal or local, such as a city tariff, the guide only applies to that area and should not be extended to other cities.
