Welcome Office
Advice and guidance to all new students enrolled at Tor Vergata
The Welcome Office offers advice and guidance on all aspects of moving to Italy helping and supporting during all the year with: stay permit, fiscal code request, bank account, access to Italian health system, general information about courses, scholarships and grants opportunities, life in Rome and other useful services for international and national students.
Fiscal Code
The Fiscal code is a necessary tool to identify citizens and it is issued by the Ministry of Finance. It is required for various procedures, e.g. to complete your enrolment but also to open a bank account, to request a health insurance card or sign a leasing contract.
Citizens residing abroad can go to the Italian Consular-diplomatic representation in their country of residence to request a fiscal code.
In Italy is possible to request this document at the closest "Agenzia delle Entrate" of the city in which you reside. The closest office to the Tor Vergata University is in via di Torre Spaccata 110 (behind the supermarket).
Residency Permit
The Italian law establishes that non-EU citizens who wish to stay in Italy for more than three months must apply for the residency permit within 8 days from their arrival in Italy.
Firstly, the student has to take thekit for theresidency permit request (available at post offices or at the University Welcome Office, where the student can also receive assistance to fill it in.
Once the request form is correctly completed, the student has to deliver it to any post offices with the logo Sportello Amicotogether with:
- a copy of each passport’s page
- a copy of the health insurance
- a copy of the Acceptance Letter received by the University

The cost of the slip is € 70,46

The closest Post Office to the Tor Vergata University is in via Terzilio Cardinali 11.
Residency Permit Renewal
The application for the residency permit renewal has to be submitted at least 60 days before the expiry date of the current “Permesso di Soggiorno”.
Here below a reminder of the steps to apply for the renewal:
Get the kit for the residency permit request (available either at post offices or at the University Welcome Office in Via Cracovia, room D001).
Fill in both the application form (Module 1) and the bulletin (70,46€). In case you need support, you can come at the Welcome Office to receive assistance.
Collect the following documents before submitting the application form: copy of each page of the passport; Copy of “Permesso di Soggiorno”; copy of the Fiscal Code; the certified list of the exams you passed (issued by the secretary of your course); copy of the Health Insurance; the Revenue Stamp (Marca da Bollo 16€) that you can find at any Tabacchi shop.
Go to any Post Office with the logo “Sportello Amico” and submit both the application form and the collected documents.
After the payment the post officer will give you the receipt of payment and the appointment with “Questura”.
Health Service
Having a valid health insurance in Italy is essential to request a residency permit.
If the student has already stipulated an insurance policy in the country of origin and it has been validated by the Italian representation before she/he left, the student can use it for the first issue of her/his residency permit.
Otherwise once in Italy the student will have two opportunities: either registering with the National Health Service (SSN) or stipulating a private policy.
National Health Service
The registration to the National Health Service (SSN), will give the student complete health assistance and she/he will be assigned (or she/he can choose) to a doctor.
Registration is valid for one solar year (from January to December)
How to register:
At the post office:
Fillin the slip and pay € 149.77 to postal current account no. 370007 addressed to: “Tesoreria Provinciale dello Stato, Regione Lazio”;
Write the following description: "iscrizione volontaria al SSN year…."
(which means ‘voluntary registration to the SSN’);
Go to the closest ASL office (Local Health Authority). The closest one to the University is in ‘Via di Torrenova’ (other addresses can be found at the salute.gov.it/) and bring the proof of payment.
