Au pair in Italy

For Italy, an au pair visa may be obtained to learn Italian in a language school. Visa would be for the duration of the language school. For an au pair from outside of the European Union, a long stay visa is needed.

Citizens of the EU countries do not need a visa to go to Italy as au pairs.

Au pair would need a certificate of registration at an established Italian school or college where she can take Italian language courses. Certificate of school registration must be stamped by the local police.

An employment contract detailing the length of stay, weekly stipend, language school arrangements, etc. is also required for the visa. This contract must be stamped by the "Ufficio Provinciale del Lavoro" along with a permit issued by the local police. Host family should also provide a signed letter of support.
