How much money do I need to show for the Italia Startup Visa?

Applicants must demonstrate adequate annual income and provide proof of financial resources, usually through a cover letter and supporting documents. A commonly cited reference point is roughly 8,500 euros per year, the threshold linked to health-service exemption.

In practice, you should also be ready to show that the startup itself has, or will have, the resources to operate. A credible funding picture, whether savings, investment or committed capital, strengthens both the committee assessment and your later renewal.
