Let\u2019s break it down so you can start your Italian dream vacation with ease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From <strong>August 6th<\/strong>, Italy will be requiring a Green Pass, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">or Covid Vaccine Certificate, from <strong>residents and travelers 12 and up<\/strong> to participate in various activities and services. These activities include indoor seating at restaurants and bars, museums, gyms, sporting events, bingo halls, swimming pools, spas and wellness centers, cinemas, and festivals. You do not need the certificate for outdoor dining or to have a coffee at the bar counter as is traditional in Italy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The good news is that Italy accepts the EU digital Covid certificate that is valid in all EU and Schengen area countries.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The good news doesn\u2019t stop there. Italy has announced that <strong>certificates will be recognized by five countries<\/strong> outside the EU, as well. Those countries are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>United States<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Canada<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Israel<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Japan<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>United Kingdom<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With these certificates, you are no longer required to do the 10 day quarantine. Cheers to more time for pizza, pasta, gelato, and wine! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, travelers coming from the UK are still required to do a 5 day quarantine, regardless of their vaccine status. As of now, there is no news on when this particular restriction will be lifted.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5><strong>What type of certificate do I need?<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/infocovid.viaggiaresicuri.it\/index_en.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a fantastic website that, in just a few clicks, will give you the specific entry requirements for your country. <strong><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2361 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.italyvacationspecialists.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/cdc-picture-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"262\" height=\"262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.italyvacationspecialists.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/cdc-picture-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.italyvacationspecialists.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/cdc-picture-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.italyvacationspecialists.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/cdc-picture-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.italyvacationspecialists.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/cdc-picture-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.italyvacationspecialists.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/cdc-picture-60x60.jpg 60w, https:\/\/www.italyvacationspecialists.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/cdc-picture.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 262px) 100vw, 262px\" \/><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In order to travel without quarantine, travelers will need one of the following certificates:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A vaccine certificate.

There is an organized testing center at the airport, however nearly all pharmacies in Italy also do the Covid-19 tests. You will see a tent or hut set up in front of the entrance of the pharmacies. The rapid tests are \u20ac22 and the molecular PCR tests are \u20ac60.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While you may not want to interrupt your vacation for a Covid-19 test, we highly recommend <strong>getting the test at a pharmacy prior to leaving for the airport.<\/strong> You will avoid any delays and have a smoother, calmer experience. Some pharmacies close for the afternoon so we recommend doing the test in the morning, evening, or checking the hours ahead of time.
