Meeting on 22 October 2025, Prefect Antonietta Orlando convened the Consiglio Territoriale per l’Immigrazione in Terni to explain how local businesses can tap Italy’s new ‘Decreto Flussi’ quotas covering 2026-2028. The DPCM of 2 October sets a ceiling of 497,550 non-EU workers over three years, including 164,850 in 2026.
Officials outlined the application calendar: pre-registration opens nationally on 23 October via the ALI portal, while the first ‘click-day’ for non-seasonal hires is scheduled for 9 January 2026. Agriculture and tourism employers in Umbria welcomed the earlier timeline, noting that last year many seasonal permits arrived too late for the olive-harvest peak.
Immigration lawyers in attendance advised companies to prepare payroll documentation and housing affidavits well in advance, as applications will again be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. The Prefecture promised to expand Sportello Unico staffing by 20 % to reduce the backlog that plagued 2025 filings.
Confindustria Umbria urged Rome to consider multi-year permits tied to training programmes, arguing that repeated renewals raise costs for SMEs. For now, however, the new quotas offer a clear—if competitive—route for businesses facing labour shortages.
