F.A.Q. about the service

No. The visa can only be issued for a single investment. Therefore, it is not possible to combine investment directed at different entities or different types of investment with an individual nominal amount below the minimum threshold. 
No. The investment must be made after the visa application has been submitted. In fact, investments made, in whole or in part, before the visa application is submitted, are not considered eligible.  
No. However, transferring the funds to an Italian bank may be advisable if it ensures greater transparency for the entire visa application process and for the bank documents to be issued to the consular representation. 
Yes, if the requirements are met, it is possible to apply for a renewal for additional 3 years.
