It states that a migrant non EU citizen is being hosted in someone’s home. This declaration is compulsory, when a house lease is signed the holder of the contract must give the declaration in together with a copy of hospitality report and a copy of the declarant’s ID. A registered copy of the house lease (registered in the declarant’s name) must be given. All the above said fulfilments will need to be repeated if accomodation address changes.
When it comes to migrants not holding residence papers the person giving hospitality often doesn’t report hospitality – even if he/she are obliged to – to avoid the risk of exclusion orders. Law decree allows a sort of a mini-pardon extended to those who haven’t reported hospitality so far. Art. 1 paragraph 9 bis states that “subjects giving hospitality that are others from employers are obliged to report hospitality,as provided for by T.U. art.7, time limit is extended to November 11 2002”. Therefore if hospitality is reported by November 11, even if it started long time before and it wasn’t reported within 48 hours, hosts are not incurring in sactions.
