Travel from USA to Italy and from Italy to Greece

From what I have read on the embassy sites, a vaccinated US citizen can travel to Italy, I see "Last updated: 05/25/2021 Travelers departing on COVID-tested international flights between the United States and Italy are not currently subject to quarantine upon arrival in Italy. I see the same thing for Greece. But once I've traveled from the USA to Italy and then from Italy to Greece, will Greece have an issue with me because I am not flying direct to Greece? I look forward to any comments/feedback, thanks

Entering Italy from USA with 10 yo end of September

Hoping somebody can guide me to where I can find out if our 10yo will need to quarantine on arrival in Rome at the end of September/beginning of October. As the trip is only for 5 days in Rome a 5 day quarantine would mean we should reschedule.

I can't find clear guidance on this on any of the Italian government web pages. Except for our 10yo all of us are vaccinated and will be antigen tested prior to our flights. We will fill out the locator form as required. Just want to be sure we have the opportunity to explore while there and not quarantine confined.

Foreigner Entry Rules for Italy - September 2021

Hi all,

My wife and I hope to enter Italy next week and dont fully understand the current rules.

We are Australian Passport Holders, full vaccinated more then 14 days ago (one Astra Zeneca and one Sinovac). We have been in Indonesia before traveling to Europe and our last 17 days ahve been 5 days in Turkey and now 12 days in Croatia. We will travel directly from Croatia to Italy.

Can we enter Italy quarantine free? If not, would extending to 14 days in Croatia help and/or would having a current PCR test be required or helpful.

Thanks for any helpful advice as much of the online information refers to EU citizens or is a little hard to decipher.

Road Trip from UK to Italy

I would appreciate views from the wise heads on this site, on a question regarding the start of quarantine after reaching Italy by car from the UK.

A British tourist enters Italy via France and on DAY 1 of travel stays overnight in Troyes.

The next day, DAY 2 of travel, the tourist drives from Troyes and enters Italy via the Mont Blanc tunnel. Tourist stays overnight in Cormayeur. Next day, on DAY 3 of travel the tourist drives direct from Courmayeur to Lucca and does not stop. Tourist then enters own Italian property for quarantine.

Question: At what point can quarantine be said to have started? There is information on social media which suggests that if Tourist emails digitalised local form to Lucca region health authorities immediately upon entering Italy that quarantine can start then, although an overnight stay in hotel in Courmayeur takes place. Or, does quarantine start the next day when Tourist drives from Courmayeur to Lucca and enters property, and if so is Travel Day 3 deemed to be the first completed day of quarantine?

Obviously, this all has some bearing on when quarantine can be said to be completed.

UK travel to Italy for Private Yacht Charter

Hi,

Hoping for some guidance please, we are set to travel to Italy from UK to holiday on our friends privately owned yacht at sea so will only be transiting through Italy on Arrival and then when leaving, as will be at sea the rest of the time. We are both vaccinated and will be doing the required passenger locator/ PCR test prior to arrival.

My question is though, do we have to do the initial 5 day quarantine if we are not going to be on land and won't have an address, and not sure who to contact is its not a charter boat but privately owned by our friends.

I have seen mixed information, however here it says-

https://www.silverstaryachting.com/en/travel-information-italy/

The green pass will be made available to visitors who are fully vaccinated with an EU-approved vaccine, those who have recently recovered from COVID-19, or individuals who have tested negative 48 hours prior to entry in Italy. The green pass grants visitors exemptions to current restrictions such as obligatory quarantine upon arrival or limitations on traveling in between certain regions whilst on a private yacht charter in Italy.

Anyone got any idea or know who best to contact?

Thanks All

Driving to Italy from the UK , guidelines...

We drive frequently to Italy from the UK, obviously we will need to quarantine upon arrival this year but we will have to stop for petrol and provisions on the way to our home. Does anyone know what the guidelines are regarding this ? we have been double vaccinated and will have tested ourselves obviously for the journey.

Overlapping Ordinances

Hi, does someone know if quarantine rules still apply to the double-vaccinated who arrived from UK before 31August? We entered Sicily on the 29th and wondered if we still have to stay in and test on day 6. There is no information regarding those who arrived between ordinances it would be absurd that some of the UK double-vaccinated to travel freely and others to continue to quarantine for 5 days and take further tests.

Many thanks!

Am I reading this correctly? American tourists

My Rental host sent me this link and assures me vaccinated Americans are allowed into Italy without the need to quarantine, makes no mention of a covid flight nor does it mention vaccines.

Can the experts here tell me if I am reading this correctly?

https://www.salute.gov.it/portale/nuovocoronavirus/dettaglioContenutiNuovoCoronavirus.jsp?lingua=english&id=5412&area=nuovoCoronavirus&menu=vuoto&tab=4

I am interpreting this to mean only those coming from countries on list E need to quarantine. Is this wishful thinking on my part?

How was travel between Italy and Switzerland this summer?

Hello. We are planning our trip next summer, which will be based in Italy since our daughter already has a school trip scheduled there.

We're planning to spend about 12 days in Italy, ending in Venice. We have 5-6 more days to play with, and were debating between going to Switzerland for the first time, or going to Milan/Lake Cuomo (also for the first time).

I'm hesitating to add the Switzerland portion onto our trip, out of concerns that it might complicate our travel next summer for Covid-related reasons. I'm worried about things like a difference in entry requirements, extra testing requirements, etc. We are all four fully vaccinated, but who knows what the rules will be concerning that by June 2022?

Since nobody has a crystal ball, I was hoping someone could at least talk about how easy it was to travel between Italy and Switzerland this summer (for vaccinated Americans, if that is relevant).

Thanks in advance for any advice you can give. :)

vaccination proof requirements

Hello,

My husband and I are flying from NY to Malpensa Airport on Emirates Air on July 27. (Spending time first in Milan then in the lakes area) We are both fully vaccinated and would have photocopy as well as NYS Pass viewable through QR code on our phones. Based on current requirements, is this acceptable when we arrive in Italy or is more needed? We just want to be prepared.

Thanks for your advice,

D
