Covid-19 Emergency
Arrivals from abroad
On October 22nd (NEW), the Italian Government updated its regulations about the mandatory self-isolation period for travelers from non-EU countries. Please fill in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs questionnaire or visit the Ministry website and the web page Re-open EU for updated information and full details about mobility to Italy and to check if you need to quarantine at your arrival.
Please find below a short summary providing examples with countries that participate in the ICM program:
-
List C: no-EU countries in List C;
-
List D: people travelling from countries in List D (among which Israel, Kosovo, Ukraine and Japan), to entering Italy must:
-
Fill out a digital Passenger Locator Form and present it to the carrier or any other authorised person, either printed or on one's mobile device;
-
Present to the carrier, or any other authorised person, a certificate of vaccination stating that the cycle of vaccination has been completed with an EMA-authorised vaccine, or a EU Green Pass proving the same
-
Take a molecular or antigenic test, carried out by means of a swab and with negative result, in the 72 hours before they arrive
-
OR, in case of lack of the certifications under points 2 and 3 (which are not alternative), travellers may still enter Italy but they must: self-isolate for five (5) days, activating local health surveillance procedures by informing Local Health Authorities
-
at the end of the self-isolation period, another molecular or antigenic test must follow.

-
a negative (molecular or antigen) swab test taken within the last 72 hours must be shown before entering Italy,
-

FULL EXEMPTION from the requirements of pre-departure testing/Certificate, self-isolation and subsequent testing for people which provided that they do not show any symptoms compatible with Covid-19, entering in Italy for a period not exceeding 120 hours due to proven needs of work, health or absolute urgency, but they are still required to fill out a Passenger Locator Form (dPLF).
NEW: As a contribution for the transfer from the airport to the place of self-isolation (if needed), a lump sum of €50 will be paid to your account together with the first instalment of the grant. This contribution fully covers the cost of transfer to almost all areas near the airport. The cost of the transfer to Trento from the closest airport, on the other hand, is more (about €200 from Verona and € 400 from Venice and Milan). We thus suggest you plan the quarantine period near the place of arrival.
According to the budget availability, Unitrento will also reimburse the cost of swab tests needed for mobility, please remember to keep and provide the original receipts.
