Italy, one of our favorite countries, has taken action, based on the recommendations of the EU, to place the USA in a high risk category and require all inbound US travelers to provide a PCR or antigen test result taken within 72 hours before reaching Italy and complete the digital passenger locator form, regardless of their vaccination status, SchengenVisaInfo.com reports.

In addition, unvaccinated travelers must undergo a quarantine requirement for five days upon arrival and perform another test by the end of the self-isolation period. Children under the age of six are exempted from the testing requirement.
