Italy reopens to travel, Super Green Pass currently required

As announced by Prime Minister Mario Draghi, Italy aims to "reopen everything as quickly as possible".

 

Fully vaccinated travellers will no longer be asked to present a negative Covid test before border entry, but proof of vaccination instead.

Unvaccinated travellers will no longer need to be quarantined, but will be required a recent health certificate that proves having the infection within the past six months or a negative Covid test.

Nevertheless, all passengers must fill in a Passenger Locator Form upon entry in order to avoid a 5 days quarantine.

However, FFP2 masks will be mandatory while onboard on all flights to and from Italy.

As for now, until the rules will relax starting April, all residents and visitors must have a Super Green Pass to enter all indoor places, from cinemas, restaurants, theatres, stadiums, to hotels, museums, gym and swimming pools. This translates into a vaccination certificate or a recovery one, not older than 6 months. Unvaccinated people that were not infected with Covid-19 in the last 6 months cannot obtain the green pass, so they cannot access these indoor venues.

The Super Green Pass is also required on all public transportation vehicles (buses, trains, cabs, trams, planes, boats).

In additions to the general Covid-19 related rules changing since the beginning of April, wearing face masks while indoors will also be dropped starting the 1st of May.
