Traveling from Spain to Italy without a Covid vaccine

Are you thinking of traveling from Spain to Italy without the COVID vaccine? Currently, to enter the country you need your EU COVID certificate, in any of its three forms: 

  • Complete vaccination schedule
  • Recovery test (having passed the COVID)
  • COVID diagnostic test (RT-PCR up to 72 hours or rapid antigen test up to 24 hours) 

Below we explain under what assumptions you need each one of them

1. Complete vaccination schedule

Since 1 February, the Italian government has decided that the full vaccination schedule is only valid for 6 months. This is counted from 14 days after the last dose of your vaccination schedule has been injected. 

If you need to travel to Italy or wish to do so for tourism, and you have not yet received the third dose or booster, you will need to undergo a rapid antigen test or an RT-PCR test, with a result in the format of the European certificate, in order to enter the country.

2. Recovery test 

If you have passed the COVID and have your health record from it, they should issue you with your certificate of recovery, which is valid 180 from your positive result. 

This indicates that you have recently passed the disease and have developed antibodies, it is important that this information must be registered with the public health authorities in Spain for it to be valid. 

3. COVID diagnostic test (RT-PCR or rapid antigen test) 

In case you do not have any of the above requirements, either because you have not wanted to be vaccinated, you are travelling with your children and they do not have a full schedule, or any other circumstance; you must have a diagnostic test from COVID
