Greetings all,
I am seeing some rather vague items about Italy changing their entry requirements regarding covid testing. For instance:
"Travellers coming from Canada, Japan or the United States may enter/return to Italy with a certificate of vaccination or a certificate of recovery in the form of a Digital Covid Certificate, or equivalent certificate, issued by local Health Authorities. They must take also a molecular test in the 72 hours prior to entering Italy (or an antigen test in the 24 hours prior to entering Italy), carried out by means of a swab, and with negative result. Otherwise, travellers from Canada, Japan or the United States may still enter Italy following general provisions for Countries in List D, as described above (test, self-isolation and subsequent test).
The provisions described above are in force until March 15, 2022."
Does anyone actually know what March 16th will bring in the way of new regulations? I have also heard March 31, 2022 will be the end of the "official covid emergency" in Italy. Are there any official statements from the Ministry of Health regarding new, updated rules for entry?
I am leaving for Italy mid April, and would like to be able to plan ahead a little for any entry requirements.
Wishful thinking on my part?
Thanks for any info,
David
