Question

Do I need a passport or visa?

Answer

A valid passport is required for international travel to Italy and must be valid for at least 3 months beyond your planned departure from Europe. EU Entry and Exit System (EES) - As of October 12, 2025, U.S. citizens will need to go through the EU’s new Entry and Exit System when traveling to 29 European countries. This applies to any visits lasting up to 90 days within a 180-day period. Your fingerprints, facial image, passport details, and entry and exit dates will be collected upon entry to an EES country and stored digitally. You do not need to pay a fee to enter the Schengen Area or the EU. The new system will be introduced gradually, and no advanced action is required. **Please plan for extra time before your departure to account for EES when leaving Europe**
