What work does the permission allow? Is the holder tied to an employer, occupation or sector? Can family accompany where clearly established?

The permit is specific to lecturers with an employment contract with the University of the Republic of San Marino that requires repeated weekly presence in the territory. The official source does not state whether the holder may do other work or change employer, or whether family members may accompany the holder. Holders of a work stay permit have equal treatment with San Marino citizens and resident foreigners for Social Security Institute healthcare benefits, temporary and lifetime economic benefits, and the allowances under Decree 26 April 1976 n.15 for dependent family members who hold an ordinary stay permit.
