Need a Visa ?

All travelers must present acceptable travel documents and identification must be presented at the border.

Some people may need a visa to enter Italy and the European Union (EU). Please check first who needs a VISA in Italy or check with your local Italian Embassy for the specific requirements for your country. 

We strongly suggest that you begin the process as soon as possible to avoid delays.
It is the sole responsibility of the participant to obtain a visa if it is required.
The organizers will not provide financial support. 

If you need a VISA and require a letter from the Organizing Committee attesting to your acceptance and registration, you can request a Visa letter during the registration process.

Please consider you will need to:
1.    Submit an abstract
2.    Have your abstract accepted
3.    Have your registration paid before the Organizing Committee can issue the letter.

If you need a VISA, we can provide you with an invitation letter upon your registration.

What documentation is required to travel to Italy?
The documentation required to travel to Italy varies according to the country of origin.
If you are a citizen of an EU country, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, or Lichtenstein, you will need a valid passport or ID card. Additionally, in the case of a minor traveling with an ID document, this must be accompanied by written permission from the parents.

If you come from another country:
The maximum stay in Italy is 90 days. There are a number of countries whose citizens are required to have a valid current visa in order to enter Spain. We are providing a list below, please consult the Italian Embassy in your country to verify. Citizens of these countries can also travel to Italy if they have a residence permit or a long-term visa issued by another country in the European Union (with the exception of the United Kingdom, Ireland, Romania, Bulgaria, and Cyprus), Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, and Lichtenstein.

Citizens of all other countries must be in possession of documents that justify the object and the conditions of their stay and be in possession of sufficient economic resources for their maintenance throughout the period they are intending to remain in Spain. The documents they are required to present will vary according to the motive of the trip. Please consult who needs a visa to enter Italy here.

It is advisable to take out travel insurance for your trip.

Given that conditions may vary, we suggest you contact the Italian Embassy or Consulate to verify these requirements before you start your trip.
