If I purchase Italian government bonds and get my investors visa, do I have to keep the investment to renew my visa for another three years? If I keep the bond, renew my visa but liquidate the bonds at the end of the third year of the investment, will my renewed investors visa be withdrawn? Will the disposal of investment impact my ability to apply for permanent residency after five years?
Answers
Yes, the investor is bound to give evidence when the first two-year period expires that he/she still owns the investment if he/she expect the residence permit to be renewed for three years further. After the renewal, the investor is free to dispose of his/her investment. At the end of the renewal period he/she is entitled to apply for the five-year residence permit for longstanding residents. After 10 years the investor is allowed to apply for citizenship.
