GPS Office Finder
Knowing which office to visit is only half the challenge. Finding it, understanding its hours, and knowing what to bring are equally important. Italy Made Simple includes a GPS office finder that helps you locate the offices you need based on your current position.
How it works
The Italy Made Simple app uses your device's location to find government offices near you. Whether you need the Questura for immigration matters, the Comune for residency registration, or the ASL for healthcare, the office finder shows relevant offices in your area. You can open directions directly from the app to navigate to the office.
Each office listing includes general information about what the office handles, helping you confirm you are going to the right place. Combined with the app's document checklists and guides, you can prepare the documents you may need before making the trip, reducing the chance of wasted visits.
The finder covers the main office categories that residents and newcomers interact with most frequently, including Questura, Comune, Prefettura, INPS, Agenzia delle Entrate, and healthcare-related offices. This means you can find different offices from a single tool rather than searching individually for each one.
Offices you can find
Immigration and residence permits, passport services, and public safety matters. The primary office for non-EU nationals handling permesso di soggiorno applications and renewals.
Residency registration, identity cards, civil status records, certificates, and local administrative services. One of the most frequently visited offices for all residents.
Social security, pensions, unemployment benefits, family allowances, and related welfare services. Manages contributions and benefits for workers and residents.
Tax identification (codice fiscale), tax filings, property registrations, and taxpayer services. The first stop for obtaining your codice fiscale after arrival.
Important notice
Office locations, hours, appointment requirements, and services offered can change. While the GPS finder helps you locate nearby offices, always verify current details such as opening hours and appointment requirements before making a visit.
Government offices in Italy may require specific documents, appointments, or forms. Requirements vary by office and by your individual situation, including nationality, residency status, and the service you need. Consult the relevant authority or a qualified professional when unsure.
