Hi.
I have a property in the Italian Alps, it is mortgage free and I was going wondering about the possibility of take a loan out against the house.
It's this something Italian banks look at ?

Hi. Just wondering if anyone has experienced and opinions of the Italian dental service? How did it compare to the UK regarding costs? I am sure the standard works be very good.
Thanks

Hi I am just trying to get a sense of roughly how much the waste tax is in your various areas.
I think part of the calculation is on the m2 of the property, would this include all outbuildings, the catena etc?

Hi we have just been up to our local commune and collected a form to apply for residency {EU passport holders}

My wife is an EU national {eire}
As I understand it she can apply in Italy for some sort of permit to stay which gets around the 90 in 180 day issue.
Does this mean that as her spouse I can then also gain the same status.

Question about pharmacies
I am currently in Italy but managed to forget my invaluable back tablets.
Do pharmacies require a doctors prescription are can you purchase medication over the counter.

Sorry what I meant was my father had a British passport from birth and then at age 65 obtained his Italian passport. Did him having a British passport mean he at some time have up his Italian citizenship.?
That's great seems positive. If my dad had been given his Italian citizenship etc. Does that mean that he did not renounce his Italian citizenship.
Thanks
Thanks for that. Good luck with your process, not an easy task but one step at a time.
My father acquired his Italian citizenship a few years ago via his parents roots,
Can I assume that as my father has technically always been an Italian citizen including when I was born I qualify, or after I turned 18 does it all change?
Good to know. Will have a look, but I am sure they have since law against it.
Just hope the glue doesn't fail and the sticker slowly curls off in front of the Swiss police!
Hi thanks for all the advice.
In the end I used my usual route, very cautious with my speed etc in Switzerland.
Had to buy a second vinette fur the trailer I was pulling. Every time I go through Switzerland it seems to cost me money.
Lastly we had a ferry booking with DFDS, they gave us a credit for the full amount no questions asked which allowed us to book the channel tunnel so no quarantinee.
Thanks
Hi,
Glad you made it safely.
We have just returned from northern Italy. Just remember no stopping in France or using the ferry otherwise 2 weeks quarantine switrerland was also on the list so fill up in Italy and then again in Germany.. Fill in the uk gov online declaration, we travelled back up through Germany as far as Aachen ( nice clear drive). Took selfies at the Aachen petrol station filling up and kept the receipt. we were asked at uk border control if we had completed the form and that was it.
It's not too much trouble be able to enjoy a nice break.
Enjoy
I am using live traps to then releae them into the wild.
I have tried the electronic devices before in England with mice etc and they didn't seem bothered one bit, just carried on.
Apple's as bait and I have now caught 5 so it's working.
Thanks
Humane traps baited with apple seems to be the answer.
Set the trap up high amongst there rafters.
Four caught and relocated in five days.
Thanks for that. Traveling via Germany is (currently) our plan
We were near you the other day, went to Mergozzo for lunch ( not the Michelin star restaurant!). Very pretty area.
Would appreciate a heads up if you hear any impending changes to UK quarantine countries. I don't get much UK news whilst working on the house here.
It's a shame if you don't make it over life here is pretty much normal except the masks.
