NB: under the above-mentioned decree, in the two cases reported below, exclusively for foreign visitors, access is conditional upon presentation of certification of a negative result from a rapid antigen test or molecular test (PCR), which is valid for 48 h (antigen test) or 72 h (PCR test):

–      certification of vaccination recognised as equivalent or authorised by the Italian authorities more than 6 months ago

Entry into Italy

Starting from March 1 also non-European citizens can enter in Italy by showing their “Green pass” certification related to one of the following conditions:

– valid proof of vaccination with an EMA-authorised COVID-19 vaccine 

– proof of recovery from COVID-19 in the 6 months prior to accessing the trade show

  • negative result from a rapid antigen test or molecular test (PCR), which is valid for 48 h (antigen test) or 72 h (PCR test)

Therefore, the “120 hours” exemption for non-European citizens is not valid anymore, as fiduciary isolation is no more required.
