Italian pension for foreigners in case of contributions paid in countries with no agreements with Italy
In case you have worked abroad in countries that do NOT have a Social Security agreement with Italy (that is, without Italian contributions sufficient on their own to entitle you to a pension), or in the absence of a contribution agreement with your foreign Country, in order to obtain a pension in Italy, you can voluntarily pay contributions in Italy in order to integrate them.
Studio A&P takes charge of the practice entirely with specialized consultants while you are abroad.
Our service includes:
Studio A&P, in collaboration with external partners, is able to offer social security consulting services to verify individual contribution records.
Specifically, we provide consulting on the following topics:
-
The date from which the right to a pension in Italy has been accrued;
-
The calculation of the pension amount in Italy, also taking into account any contributions paid abroad.
Please note: The A&P Studio does not handle the submission of pension applications but can provide guidance on the procedure to follow. Additionally, in order to prepare the consultation, we always ask clients to retrieve their contribution statement (“estratto contributivo”) from their personal INPS account. This can be obtained if you have a SPID (Public Digital Identity System). Otherwise, we will provide a proxy form so we can access it on your behalf.
