We are in the final stages of preparing to go to Italy. Our connection from the U.S. is through Schiphol airport which has travel restrictions in place for unvaccinated passengers. The only exception we can see (other than being vaccinated) is to show proof that our destination EU country will accept us. I can't find any way to get "official" documentation other than printing the Italy .gov website that claims to have dropped all Covid requirements to enter the country. Has anyone (unvaccinated) recently passed through Amsterdam on the way to an EU country and what did you present as proof that Italy is accepting tourists. The Netherland gov site states the following exception to being vaccinated:
This (restriction) does not apply to nationals of USA transiting through the Netherlands to Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czechia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland (Rep.), *Italy**, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Monaco, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, San Marino, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland or Vatican City (Holy See) as final destination, with a document proving that the country of destination is allowing them to enter (e.g. note verbale).
Please share any recent experiences/solutions per traveling into the EU through a Netherlands airport.
