Travelling from Reims to Parrano, Umbria.  Can anyone advise the best, shortest & cheapest route with minimal use of toll roads through France etc, accepting that we will use the autostrade through Italy. Thanks.

Can anyone help or know someone who can sort this out for me – cheaply!?I think I need to apply for residency in Italy. However, I will not be a ‘full-time’ resident, maybe up to or just over half the year for the time being.....

Someone has just mentioned that we may need an "Emission Zone sticker" for travel in Germany... Is this correct or just something residents must have in their cities?

Given that the vehicle will be driven by pensioners(!!) and there is no rush, how long should they give themselves to do this journey comfortably?  Recommendations as to where to stop overnight would be welcome too....

Thanks, I have, but so long since I have used it I have forgotten what to do!!  I will just wait out the 5 days and go to the comune as soon as I get there.

Thank you Paulo.......  I have looked at the link you posted and it would appear there are only three offices in Umbria, 2 in Perugia, 1 in Terni, neither very local to the Castiglione/Fabro areas!  Am I correct?

Thank you for the advice everyone.  I can live with a 10 euro fine....  I was worried that it might be hundreds! Payment will be 10 days late....  I have already completed the F24 form, but there is no option with my Comune to submit it on-line.  Errr.... INAC?  Sorry, but only purchased 10 months ago, so still very 'green' about these things!

Oh sh1t!  Thank you Rickardo. Normally mail is forwarded, but I have not got this one....

I am confused by 'Prima'/'Seconda'.... sorry to be asking what is  probably a stupid question in some eyes, but I do need a definitive answer in order to pay the IMU if necessary!Having decided NOT to apply for residency on the advice of members from this community, is my home in Umbria a Prima Casa or a Seconda Casa?  I own half a house in the UK, where I am resident when not in Italy.  I visit my home in Umbria for 2 - 4 weeks at a time throughout the year, probably up to 16 weeks per year in total.  I do not let it out....I will be there next week, so hope it will not be too late to pay if I need to?
