Cidade do Vaticano: o que saber antes da viagem

O essencial

  • Check Italy’s admission requirements for the journey through Rome.
  • Cover shoulders and knees for museum and basilica visits; inappropriate clothing can prevent entry.

Entrada e vistos

Tourist access is through Rome, so Italy’s entry and stay rules apply to the journey. Admission to museums and religious sites is separate from immigration permission: use official bookings and follow security checks. No independent Vatican visa entitlement is asserted for any passport group.

Validade do passaporte: For travel through Italy, Schengen documents normally need 3 months’ validity after departure and issue within the previous 10 years.

  • Vatican Museums bookshops accept cash and credit cards, but not American Express, Diners or JCB. This is venue-specific; other outlets may differ.
