Holiday hotspot makes it easier for Brits to visit the country – here are the new rules
ITALY has eased some of its travel restrictions, making it easier for Brits to travel to the country.
Brits entering the country need to show they have been fully vaccinated using a Green Pass, with the NHS app accepted.
Under the new rules, Brits who have had their two jabs and a booster vaccine can enter the country.
Those who have had two jabs but no booster can enter Italy if both vaccines were administered in the last six months - unless they can show that they have had and recovered from Covid.
Arrivals must still fill in a Passenger Locator form and have a negative Covid test - either a PCR within 48 hours of entry or a lateral flow within 24 hours.
If you haven't been fully vaccinated, you will have to isolate for at least five days on arrival.
Kids under the age of 17 do not need to quarantine if they are travelling with a fully vaccinated parent, but will still need to have a negative Covid test.
Children under six do not need to have any Covid tests.
