New type of tourist visa available

Oct 02, 2017

The Italian ministry of foreign affairs has introduced a new category of the tourist visa. It is named “Turismo – Visita Famiglia/amici” (tourism – visit to family/friends) and it is reserved to family members or friends of individuals residing in Italy wishing to visit them for a maximum period of 90 days within 180 days. Therefore, if you have been invited to Italy by relatives or friend(s) living there, this is the correct visa to apply for.

Eligibility requirements are similar to the standard tourist visa (evidence of means of support during the stay, health insurance etc.) but the key factor is an invitation letter from the family member/friend in Italy, confirming the availability to host the visa applicant.
