Religious Visa
Plain English
It's a National Visa for non-EU citizens coming to Italy for religious reasons, such as serving in a recognised religious institution or carrying out specific religious activities. The institution supports the application.
Why it matters
It\'s a defined channel for clergy and other religious workers that doesn\'t go through the work-quota system. Conditions are tied to the recognised religious entity.
