What is the procedure if a residence permit application is rejected due to issues with the rental contract or lack of municipal consent?
If a residence request is rejected or threatened with rejection due to issues with the rental contract, hospitality declaration, or municipal consent, you must involve a lawyer, submit a new request, and have the consenting party appear in person at the municipality (comune) within 10 days to provide consent to avoid a definitive rejection.
