Entry and health

Health information

"Healthcare in Italy is excellent, with public hospitals and clinics available. For minor issues, pharmacies (farmacia) provide over-the-counter medications and advice. EU citizens should carry a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) for reduced-cost care. Non-EU travelers need travel insurance covering medical expenses. In emergencies, dial 112 for ambulance service. Tap water is safe to drink, but stick to bottled water in rural areas if unsure."

Culture

Local customs

"Italians value politeness and greetings; a handshake or 'buongiorno' is standard. Dress modestly when visiting churches (cover shoulders and knees). Dining etiquette includes waiting for the host to start, and it's customary to say 'buon appetito'. Tipping is not mandatory but appreciated for good service (round up or leave small change). Avoid loud behavior in public."
