Access for non-EU citizens holding a residence permit in Italy to the National Health Service may vary depending on the reasons of their stay.

Non-EU citizens who will be staying in Italy for stays of maximum three months but in any case temporarily, may have access to all emergency or otherwise essential healthcare only after paying the corresponding regional fees.

Students, au pair people and non-EU citizens holding a residence permit are required to register with the National Health Service and apply to the local health unit in the municipality of residence or, whether not yet holding a residence permit, in the place reported in the residence permit as one’s own official address.
