Looking to start a business in Italy and need someone to actually handle the work of securing your Italy Entrepreneur Visa? That’s exactly what we do here at Pearl Lemon Visa. We don’t hand you a checklist and wish you luck. We walk you through the full process—from application to business setup to legal compliance—and make sure everything gets done right the first time.
Whether you’re a founder, investor, digital nomad ready to plant roots, or part of a growing startup team—you bring the idea, we’ll bring the execution.
Visa Strategy & Business Plan Services
Every strong Italy entrepreneur visa application starts with a business plan that sells. Not to investors—but to the Italian government. This isn’t just about showing growth projections; it’s about proving economic value, risk analysis, and your role in Italy’s innovation push.
Our team works directly with you to shape your vision into a visa-ready format:
- We craft business plans that meet the criteria laid out by the Italian Ministry of Economic Development.
- We align your business model with the €50,000 investment requirement.
- We help present your plan in a way that speaks the Italian government’s language: jobs, tech relevance, and long-term economic impact.
Legal Paperwork & Application Submission
Visa applications don’t get rejected because the business is bad—they get rejected because the paperwork’s a mess. We don’t let that happen. We handle every legal, bureaucratic, and technical step you need:
- Full application form handling and error-proofing
- Proof of funds, health insurance, accommodation requirements—all documented correctly
- Liaising with relevant Italian authorities to move your file forward, not let it sit in a stack
- We ensure your Nulla Osta request (Certificate of No Impediment) is locked and loaded, avoiding red tape delays
Compliance, Regulation & Licensing
Italy doesn’t mess around when it comes to regulations—and if you’re not aligned with local business laws, your visa won’t survive annual checks. We make sure you’re always covered.
- We identify licensing requirements based on your business model
- We guide your corporate structure setup for compliance with Italian self-employment rules
- Our legal team will pre-check your operational model for red flags
Incorporation & Post-Visa Setup
Once your visa is approved, we don’t disappear. We guide you through every next step required to actually run your business in Italy:
- Company registration with the Italian Chamber of Commerce
- VAT and tax ID acquisition
- Local address registration and setting up banking
- Introductory sessions with commercialisti (Italian accountants) for local tax setup
Whether you’re building an s.r.l. (limited liability company) or operating solo—we know what needs to happen and when.
Startup Team & Investor Visa Group Applications
You don’t have to go it alone. If you’re applying with co-founders, developers, or investors, we structure your group visa submission so you’re all aligned—and no one gets left behind.
- Multi-person application management under one startup project
- Proper documentation to reflect equity stakes and roles
- Consistency across Nulla Osta filings
- Custom plans for founders + family visas
We’ve done this for startup studios, angel-backed groups, and even family-led ventures. We’ll keep your team together through every step.
Post-Arrival Support & Renewal Services
The work doesn’t stop once you land in Italy. You’ll need to:
- Apply for your Permesso di Soggiorno (residence permit)
- Stay compliant annually
- Renew at the right time with the right metrics in place
- Investor reporting and updates for your file
- Legal crisis management if local issues arise
- Planning your upgrade path from temporary permit to long-term residency or citizenship
