He was in Leghorn in 1803, and the following year is mentioned as one of the scholars of Jerusalem. R. Nissim traveled to Turkey and was appointed head of the bet din of Magnesia, near Smyrna.

He visited Safed in 1831 and there published the prayer book according to the Sephardi rite Sefat Emet, with an introduction, commentary, and regulations.
