During your trip

Accessing indoor venues in Italy

Everybody aged 12 and above must present Green Pass or equivalent to dine indoors in restaurants, enter museums and archaeological sites, and access other indoor event spaces. This pass must demonstrate proof of at least one dose of vaccine, recovery from Covid in the last 6 months, or a negative result from a test taken within 48 hours is required.

Visitors from the US, UK, Canada, Japan, and Israel

can show the documents issued by their respective authorities in lieu of the Italian Green Pass. The document must both state the identity of the holder and the date and type of vaccine administered. An ID document will also be required to verify the holder’s identity.

Certificates will be accepted in one of the following four languages: English, Italian, French, or Spanish. Any certificate not in one of these must be accompanied by a certified translation.

The certification of successful completion of the vaccination cycle must relate to one of the four vaccines approved by the European Medicines Agency: Comirnaty from Pfizer–BioNTech, Moderna, Vaxzevria, Jansen (Johnson & Johnson).
