You may have heard about a new travel requirement called ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorization System), which will eventually apply to U.S. citizens visiting many European countries, including Italy. While ETIAS has not yet launched, the European Union is currently planning to roll it out sometime in 2026. Weu00a0 recommend keeping an eye on updates for the launch date. Once ETIAS is live, travelers will be asked to complete a quick application online and pay a small fee (around u20ac7). Most applications are expected to be approved within minutes. Weu2019ll update this page if the timeline changes or if anything becomes relevant for June travel. In the meantime, you can check for the latest updates on the official ETIAS website.
