Irish passport holders enter Italy visa-free for unlimited stays as EU citizens. No fee, no advance application. A valid Irish passport is required. Ireland is not in the Schengen Area, so there is passport control on arrival from Dublin, but EU citizens pass through quickly.
For stays beyond 3 months, register at the local Anagrafe (civil registry office) for residency. EU citizens must apply for a Certificato di Iscrizione Anagrafica at the local Comune. The fee is a EUR 16 bollo stamp. Bring proof of employment or self-employment, or proof of sufficient resources (roughly EUR 6,000 per year for a single person) plus health insurance.
