Repatriation of personal effects

Italian nationals wishing to repatriate/ return to Italy with their personal effects after a period of residency abroad, can do so without paying customs duties. The personal effects will be exempt from customs duties provided that the applicant resided abroad for a minimum of twelve months prior to repatriation. Spouses of Italian nationals may benefit from the same concessions provided that they relocate to Italy within six months of the date of their wedding.

In order to obtain a repatriation document from us, you will need to:

  • Book an appointment through our online portal Prenot@mi (“Consular Services”)
  • Bring the following documents to your appointment:
    • Three copies of the packing list, stating the total value of your personal effects
    • Italian Passport
    • Flight ticket
