EU citizens enjoy a special status: thanks to the EU treaties they are regarded (almost) as Italian citizens. There are, however, a certain number of special rules that an EU citizen should be aware of. Those special requirements concerns:
- Residency
- Health care
- ...
Residency
EU citizens who are planning to stay in Italy for more than 3 months have to set their residency in Italy. This obviously apply to PhD students. In order to set your residency in Italy you have to find a permanent accommodation (with a legal rent contract). Then you have to go to the Municipality Office that deals with residency applications - the anagrafe, ufficio residenza. There after showing some documents you'll have to file a request. After a while (up to 60 days) an officer from the Local Police will show up at your home to check that you actually live there and that there are no problems with your flat (keep your contract at hand - just in case). You'll not be able to choose the day in which the police is going to show up... but you can choose the hour (more or less). Saying that you're free only in the early morning (7:30 - 8:30) is a good choice.
Documents
In order to request the residency you have to show the following documents:
- Proof of sufficient means of subsistence: A statement from SISSA certifying the amount of your fellowship. If you do not have a fellowship you should enclose a bank statement.
- Proof of enrollment: A statement from SISSA certifying that you're a PhD student and how long it will last your PhD program.
- Health care insurance: A copy of your health care insurance or a document stating that you are registered with the national health care system (????)
Directions
The ufficio residenza address is: Passo costanzi 2 near (behind) piazza dell'Unità. It's open on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 8:30 am. to 12:00 pm. and on Monday from 14:00 to 16:00. (Tel 0406754225 / 4477)
