About this document
An official memo listing the documents needed to obtain a nulla osta for lavoro autonomo (self-employment) for non-EU foreigners on the liberi professionisti track - free professionals. The nulla osta is the preliminary clearance requested in Italy, without which the consulate will not issue a type D self-employment visa. The memo lists eight mandatory items of the package and rests on the legal framework: Testo Unico 286/98 (art. 26 and 27), DPR 394/99 (art. 39 and 40), the quota decrees DPCM 14.12.2015 and 15.12.2017, and the 1961 Hague Convention on document legalization. It is the starting point of the lavoro autonomo track: first the nulla osta package, then the D visa, then the permesso. Lists and rules get updated over time - check the current version with your questura.
