  5. When am I required to start self-isolating after arriving in Italy, where mandatory?

    As a rule, immediately after entering the country. You are only allowed to reach the address where you have chosen to self-isolate, by the shortest possible route and without using any means of public transport other than the means used to travel to Italy (for example, if you fly into Fiumicino Airport you are not allowed to catch a train into Rome or for any other destination). Transit passengers are not required to self-isolate: if you are on a short stopover between flights and do not leave the airport you are free to board a connecting flight to any other domestic or international destination. You may rent a car (with or without a driver) or use a taxi. Furthermore, persons travelling to Italy from abroad for reasons of work, health or absolute necessity may postpone the start of the self-isolation period for up to 120 hours. The delay must be justified by the same reasons that justified your travelling to Italy in the first place. For the cases of exemption from mandatory self-isolation see the previous FAQ 3.

  6. I am a foreign resident and need to pass through Italy to go home. What am I required to do?

    Transit through Italy, from one foreign country to another, to return home along the fastest possible route and without intermediate stopovers that are not strictly necessary, is allowed. For example:

    • airport transits are allowed (for example, if travelling from Caracas to Frankfurt, with a stopover in Fiumicino), as long as you do not leave the airport;
    • cruise passengers disembarking in Italy at the end of the cruise are allowed to return to the Country where they live (at the expense of the ship owner);
    • ferry passengers with a vehicle (travelling from Tunisia or Greece to Italy, for example), may continue on their vehicle to their home country (the Netherlands or Germany, for example). In this case, they are allowed to remain in Italy for no more than 36 hours.

    Before boarding the airplane/ferry to Italy, you will be required to complete a self-certification form (link to Foreign Ministry form) clearly indicating that you are only passing through Italy on your way to your final destination in a foreign country. If you have developed, or develop Covid-19 symptoms while in Italy, you must immediately notify the competent health authorities, by calling the dedicated helplines and await instructions. Before undertaking any travel you are advised to search for information regarding travel restrictions in place in Italy, as well as in the countries of origin, transit and destination. When travelling through Italy you are advised to keep in touch with your consular authorities. From June 3, there will be no travel restrictions in place to Italy from the following countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland, Andorra, Monaco, Republic of San Marino, Vatican City State, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. If during the 14 days prior to entering Italy you spent any length of time in countries other than those listed above, you shall be required to continue to observe the above mentioned transit rules.

You are not allowed to leave the airport if you are travelling from any of the above Countries but stayed in a different Country prior to 14 days before the date of travel.

  8. I am a foreign / Italian citizen temporarily in Italy. Can I travel to the country where I live?

    Yes, travel to return home is always allowed. You are advised to search for information regarding travel restrictions to and in your country of destination, in respect of the Covid-19 emergency. Foreign nationals are also advised to keep in touch with your consular authorities in Italy.

  9. I am travelling to Italy from abroad.Can I ask someone to come and pick me up by car, on arrival at the airport / railway station / port?

    Yes, but one person only and only if he or she is a member of your household and is possibly wearing personal protective equipment. However, before departing you are advised to check the Covid-19 measures and restrictions in force in the region of destination. Except if you are exempted for any reason (see FAQ 3 above) you must immediately notify your arrival in Italy to the Disease Prevention Department of your local health authorities and spend a period of time in supervised self-isolation.
