Italy has dropped quarantine rules for fully vaccinated British travellers.
Five-day quarantine removed for fully vaccinated Brits
From yesterday, fully-vaccinated Brits arriving in Italy will no longer have to quarantine for five days upon arrival.
Travellers must have received their second dose of the vaccine at least 14 days prior to travel and must present a negative PCR or antigen test taken within the 48 hours before arrival in Italy. Unvaccinated UK arrivals will still be required to present a negative test and self-isolate for five days.
Italy's Green Pass
UK travellers will either need to apply for Italy's 'Green Pass' certificate, which comes in digital or paper versions, or present their NHS vaccination pass which is also recognised in Italy as a Green Pass and can be either scanned or printed. The pass shows that people have been vaccinated, tested negative or recovered from COVID-19 and is required for indoor dining in restaurants and bars as well as being mandatory for access to museums, cinemas, theatres, gyms, swimming pools, amusement parks, spas, wellness centres, festivals, fairs, casinos, bingo halls and sports stadiums.
Modes of transport such as domestic flights, ships and ferries connecting different regions, Intercity, Intercity Night and High-Speed Trains, coaches and buses connecting different regions, coaches and buses on hire with driver also need the same.
The pass, which does not apply to children under the age of 12, will not be necessary for consuming food or drink at tables outdoors or drinking a coffee while standing at the bar.
