Livio Andrea Acerbo

I founded Relocate Milan and I handle the cases myself: permits, questura appointments, registrations, housing search and the practical setup that follows. We run dozens of relocations every year for professionals, students, families and companies moving to Milan.

I work across Milan, Nice and Lisbon, so I have been through the paperwork I write about from the other side of the desk. Twenty years of cross-border operations between Italy and Europe is the reason international bureaucracy is familiar territory rather than a mystery.

What I publish here describes how procedures actually work in practice — real timelines, the documents offices ask for beyond the official list, the months when nothing moves. It is not legal, tax, or immigration advice. Where a regulated professional is needed, I say so and point you to one.
