I searched the forum history for the last 6 months and couldn't find the exact link. I wanted to print out the official Italian document stating CDC cards are equivalent as super green passes, just in case a place wants to deny me for not having a QR code.
Thanks anyone.
We have now been in Italy for over a week (in Venice and now in Florence). We have had no difficulty in showing our US vaccination card for admittance anywhere. They aren’t so happy with digital NY Excelsior Pass - they prefer the paper version. Be prepared to have it handy everywhere, however - museums, shops, restaurants.
You can probably find it on this site:

I wouldn't worry too much, all reports are that it is not really an issue, it is accepted.
When is your trip? Requirement may be gone by then anyway.
Been traveling through Sicily, on our own and with RS tour. CDC cards accepted everywhere- from restaurants to museums to churches. If they see your US passport they know the white card comes next.
However- you will need full vaccination + booster for full access.
Been in Italy a few days (Venice), and CDC card has been fine everywhere we’ve been.
Have any of you in Italy shown the image of your card and passport on your phone? I’m leery of carrying my card and passport around all the time.
Thanks for your help and experience
As an US citizen, by Italian law You are supposed to always carry your passport around all the time.
