The Transfer Status Level system is the official immigration scale used by the Pacitalian Ministry of Customs and Immigration (MoCI). It was implemented by Pacitalia's Agustinate of Customs and Immigration Giancarlo Adriano Caporello in 2003. The scale has made it easier for foreign nationals to determine their standing among MoCI regulations and plan their vacation to Pacitalia accordingly. All nations start at Level Yellow and their status moves up or down the scale depending on the strength or weakness of their relations with Pacitalia.

Level Description Example Nations
Green Nations in Level Green status have the most accessibility to Pacitalia. Traditionally, there is a convention that nations can only enter Green if they have been a strong ally of Pacitalia for 10 years without interruption. Many nations do fit this category but only one has so far been elevated from Blue to Green.

Requirements of entry: Valid driver's licence (DL), birth certificate (BC) or student identification card (SIC). Biometric identification also available.
Visa conditions: None. Visa not required except for stays over 12 months.

Hamptonshire
Oceania
Blue Nations in Level Blue status still enjoy the same travel freedoms as Level Green nations but need to present an additional document to do so. Traditionally, Level Blue nationals are of nations with strong ties to Pacitalia.

Requirements of entry: Valid passport PLUS driver's licence (DL), birth certificate (BC) or student identification card (SIC). Biometric identification available for some nationals.
Visa conditions: None. Visa not required except for stays over 3 months. Nationals who have been convicted of a criminal offence in the last twelve (12) months must enter a consultation appointment with the Ministry to determine whether permission shall be given.

Yellow Yellow is, as mentioned, the starting point for all nations on the scale. Most nations that exist here have cordial or budding ties with Pacitalia, or Pacitalia simply has a neutral opinion on the nation and therefore still welcomes its nationals accordingly. Members of alliances Pacitalia is in also stand here unless they have made separate agreements or overtures in which their status has moved up.

Requirements of entry: Valid passport and travel visa PLUS driver's licence (DL), birth certificate (BC) or student identification card (SIC).
Visa conditions: Visa is valid for up to three (3) months, refreshment of visa (through application for a new visa) must be processed at least thirty (30) days in advance. Nationals who have been convicted of a criminal offence in the last twenty-four (24) months must enter a consultation appointment with the Ministry to determine whether permission shall be given.

Orange Citizens of Level Orange nations are still welcome in Pacitalia but the process in which they may enter is lengthy and rather bureaucratic. Nationals must not only apply for a travel visa, they cannot even approach a customs checkpoint without a second document permitting them to do so. Even then, Pacitalian Immigration Protection Agency (PIPA) agents watch them constantly from their entry into the checkpoint, through processing, and onto Pacitalian soil. In addition to this, the travel visa for Level Orange does not last as long.

Requirements of entry: Valid passport, travel visa and Permission to Approach Checkpoint documentation (MoCI D-219_a4) PLUS driver's licence (DL), birth certificate (BC) or student identification card (SIC).
Visa conditions: Visa is valid for up to two (2) months, refreshment of visa (through application for a new visa) must be processed at least thirty (30) days in advance. Nationals who have been convicted of a criminal offence in the last thirty-six (36) months must enter a consultation appointment with the Ministry to determine whether permission shall be given.
