The University of Pisa offers a low-price dining service to students through the Diritto allo Studio Universitario (DSU Toscana) agency.

In Pisa, there are five dining halls that may be accessible to students enrolled.

In order to access the university canteens you must have a temporary canteen card that can be obtained at the canteens themselves, or the student card given to the student along with the exam booklet.

In order to use in the canteens, the card must be activated online or alternatively at the canteen card offices: all information regarding costs and the application for reduced costs are available on the dedicated webpage.

The temporary canteen card can only be used in the canteens.

The Student Card is a magnetic card which allows those who attend any of the universities in Tuscany, to access all the services offered by the DSU, regardless of which university they are enrolled at. The card, which has function as a smart card, will allow access to all the university services, including the dining halls available at various institutions run by Ardsu Toscana, and also as an ‘electronic wallet’.

In case of loss, theft or damage of the student card, the owner must follow these steps.

• insurance policy with Authorities or national companies accompanied by a declaration from the insuring entity that specifies the absence of limitations or exceptions to the tariffs established for urgent hospital admittance for the length of the cover.

• right to choose your General Practicioner - or Family Doctor
• basic and specialist medical care at a discounted price
• ambulance service and other free services provided by the local healthcare authority
• Italian Health Card

The Italian Law recognises the right to health as a fundamental human right. Legal foreign residents are fully entitled to the same treatment and civil rights as Italian citizens, if registered with the National Health Service.

Should you be in a situation in which you need health assistance or/and emergency care either provided by public or private health staff (contracted by the SSN) and you do not have the Italian health card (or its provisional replacement certificate), you will need to pay for all the medical expenses.

Guardia Medica

Your general practicioner has work hours. This means that you cannot see him/her everytime you want to but only during their working hours. What happens when you are not feeling well and your doctor is not available? For example, when one feels sick during the night or on weekends? At this point, you should call or visit the Guardia Medica. It is a doctor that substitutes your general practicioner when he/she is not working - during the night, on weekends and on national holidays. The Guardia Medica should be called for a medication or prescription that is urgent, but not serious enough to go to the emergency department (pronto soccorso). The Guardia Medica is free of charge for those who are registered with the Servizio Sanitario Nazionale (SSN).

When you need the Guardia Medica, you just call the phone number or go directly to their office. The Guardia Medica will see you at home if you are not well and cannot move.

Working hours

Monday to Friday: from 8 pm to 8am

National holidays, Saturday and Sunday: from 10am until 8 am of the following business day.

The Guardia Medica is located in via Garibaldi, 198 Pisa, tel. 050 959866 - Web page

Private Health Insurance

As an alternative to registering with the SSN, you can apply/renew your Residence Permit with a private health insurance valid in Italy.

The insurance can be issued by foreign or Italian companies and it must:

• cover you without limitations or exceptions;
• Be registered to you;
• Be valid in Italy for the duration of the study program or mobility.

Please, note that private health policies:

• Do not allow the choice of a general practitioner or the registration with the Italian National Health Service (SSN);
• Usually require the student to pay the expenses in advance and then ask for reimbursement from the insurance company. 

We highly reccommend you to carefully check the conditions and terms before purchasing the policy. Remember that the health costs to be advanced could be very high, for example in the case of hospitalization. In the event of a claim, you should contact the insurance company as soon as possible. Please, note that failure to comply with one of the obligations may result in total or partial loss of insurance compensation.

You can purchase a health insurance from different private companies: compare multiple options to figure out which one is best suited to your needs. Here you can find an example of private insurance that have been recognized by the Police station to apply/renew the Residence Permit:

• WAI - Welcome Association Italy  https://www.waitaly.net/en/

For more information, please read carefully the conditions of the Insurance Policy available here: https://www.waitaly.net/en/pacchetti-welcome/cittadino-extra-ue-richiedente-permesso-di-soggiorno/#copertura.

Emergency number: 112

• medical services

The 112 operator will forward the call to the relevant service depending on the type of emergency.

Emergency Department (Pronto Soccorso) in Pisa

Hospital in Pisa: Ospedale di Cisanello

Address: Via Paradisa, 2 (Pronto Soccorso/Emergency room: Building 31)

Non-EU citizens residing abroad and wishing to carry out research projects in Italy for a period longer than 90 days need an Italian government authorization called the “research nulla osta”, which is the first step before applying for the research visa.

The administrative procedure for getting the research nulla osta can only be started by an Italian Research Center (e.g. a University or a similar Research Center) that has a previous agreement with the Italian Ministry of Education and Research (MIUR).

A foreign researcher or a private citizen cannot start the application by himself.

At the University of Pisa, for the first step, a non-EU researcher has to apply to the Visiting Fellow Programme and contact the International Coordinator of the Department he/she wishes to visit and carry out his/her research.

Regarding the nulla osta procedure, the steps are the following:

1. Firstly, a "Hosting Agreement" (Convenzione d'Accoglienza) has to be signed between the foreign researcher and the Department at the University of Pisa, which will be hosting you. Therefore the Department will forward you the "Hosting Agreement", which you will have to sign (two copies) and send back to your host Department in Pisa.
2. After receiving back the Hosting Agreement signed by you, the Department at the University of Pisa will formally apply for the Italian Governmental authorization called the "research nulla osta", which is the official document that will allow you to apply for the research visa. In order to proceed, you will have to show that you have already booked accommodation here in Pisa (at least one month booking is necessary).
3. If the nulla osta application is accepted, the governmental office called Prefettura (Ufficio Unico) will release the research nulla osta to your host Department staff that, on their turn, will forward the nulla osta to you as well. In the meantime, the Prefettura will inform the Italian Embassy or Consulate in the Country where you reside too, for the next issuing of your research visa.
4. At this point, after receiving the nulla osta by your Department staff, you are allowed to apply for the research visa (our Embassy will already know your name and details of the nulla osta).
5. After getting the research visa, upon your arrival in Italy, you must apply for the research residency permit, within the first 8 days upon your arrival.
6. Finally, after applying for the Italian residency permit (at the post office), while waiting for its release, you are allowed to start working.

Please note that at least one month may be necessary for the whole process.

For more information about the Research Visa, the European Euraxess web site may help you.

Information provided by:

International Promotion Unit
Piazza Torricelli, 4 56126 Pisa

According to Italian Law (D. Lgs. 286/98) non E.U. citizens, planning to stay in Italy longer than 3 months must apply for a Residence permit within 8 working days after arrival.

Please note, if you have a Type ‘D’ visa you must apply for the Residence Permit.

First step: Italian Tax Code (Codice Fiscale)

Information on how to get the Tax Code, please follow instructions at this page.

Please note that the tax code issued by your registration at Alice (University of Pisa website) is not official.

Second step: Health Insurance coverage

In order to apply for a Residence Permit, you need an Health Insurance coverage. Please, read the dedicated webpage where you will find detailed informations.

If you do not have an Health Insurance coverage

In this case we suggest you enrol in the Italian National Health Service for the current year, which means that it only lasts until December 31st each year (it doesn’t matter when you apply) and must be renewed each calendar year. However, if you enrol in the Italian National Health Service, you will then receive the same benefits AS AN ITALIAN CITIZEN by getting the Italian health card.

You will also have the right to choose your personal medical Doctor in Pisa.

The registration cost for the current year 2024 is 700€ and is valid until Dec/31st of each year regardless of the registration date. Please keep in mind that the registration needs to be renewed every year. Payment of the registration fee must be made by modello F24 (available in any post office), CODICE TRIBUTO (type of payment): 8846; CODICE REGIONE (Region number) : 17; ANNO DI RIFERIMENTO (reference year): 2024.

Please keep your receipt of payment. It will be useful later for your enrollment at the local Italian Health Center.

If you already have Health Insurance coverage

Please, check its validity in Italy with the Patronato Office (third step).

Third step: appointment at a “Patronato” Office

Please note: some of these documents must be enclosed with the Application Form (kit giallo/yellow kit) at the Post Office.

Fourth step:  Residence Permit application 

Go to one of the Post offices in town (Poste Italiane) and send the Residence Permit form. We suggest you to go to the main Post Office in Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II, near to the central train station.

Please be aware that after sending the Application Form by mail, the Post Office clerk will give you a special Receipt and a fingerprinting appointment at the Questura (Local Police Headquarters) in Via Lalli, 3.

• € 16,00 for the special stamp (marca da bollo);
• € 30,00 for the Post Office in order to mail the Application Form;
• € 70,46 for the application for the Residence Permit (valid for up to 1 year)

You can check the progress of your residency Permit application and any missing document at Portale Immigrazione, by using the password and ID on your post office application receipt (do not consider the dash in the password).

At the Questura you will sign the Integration Agreement too, which is an agreement between the Italian State and a non EU/EEA citizen entering Italy for the first time. The international student is committed to meet his/her civic obligations and invited to participate in a class on Civic education, about life in Italy.

Fifth step: Health Card and family doctor 

If you have paid the 700,00 euro for the enrolment to the Italian public Health System, go to the Health District in via Garibaldi 198, where you will be able to get the health card and choose your personal doctor free of charge.

An entry visa is the authorization which allows you to enter Italy. After arrival, the Residence Permit ('Permesso di Soggiorno') will allow you to stay ('soggiornare').

Please be aware that two factors determine whether you need a visa:

1. Your citizenship
2. How long you intend to stay in Italy

People who do not have an EU-citizenship need an entry visa for Italy.

However, those intending to stay less than 90 days may be exempt if their citizenship is from a country which does not have to request a visa for short-term stays (the list of the countries is available at www.esteri.it/en/servizi-consolari-e-visti/ingressosoggiornoinitalia/visto_ingresso/paesi_esenti_visto/). 
Please note that the 90 days exemption is not admitted in Italy for persons carrying out a paid activity during their stay in Italy or for a stay regarding health reasons. For all details please enquiry to the Italian Embassy/Consulate nearest to you.

If you wish to stay in Italy for a period exceeding 90 days, you are subject to a visa requirement even if you are a citizen of a country exempt from any visa requirement for transit or short stay.

There are several types of visa depending on the purpose of your trip. Visas are released by the Italian Embassy or consulates in your country of residency.

For more information: vistoperitalia.esteri.it/home/en.
