We translated the most common tourist activities from the government’s super green pass chart into English so you can see which require a super green pass.

Despite the rule change in April, 2022, you will need a Super Green Pass to:

• Attend shows/movie theaters
• Attend sporting events
• Attend parties (including wedding receptions) and nightclubs
• Attend public events including trade fairs, festivals, etc. 
• Use gyms and indoor sporting facilities – even in a hotel you are staying in

You still need a Green Pass (but not a ‘super’ boosted one):

• Take public transport including trains
• Visit museums and cultural/archaeological sites
• Drink a coffee standing at the bar
• Eat and drink inside a restaurant

Without any kind of pass you can now:

• Eat and drink outdoors
• Go to a hairdressers, beauty salons, barbers
• Go inside banks, post offices, public offices

Unfortunately the evolving terminology chosen by the Italian government can be confusing for visitors.

From December 6, 2021, the government has made a distinction between a Green Pass generated by vaccination or recovery from Covid-19, and a Green pass generated by a test. The former is now known as a “Super Green Pass“.

If you are just visiting and you’re not from the EU, you can’t in fact get an official “Super Green Pass” – but you can use your vaccination certificate from home, backed up with photo ID, in place of a Super Green Pass.

You can also get a 48-hour “Green Pass” by doing an antigen or PCR test in Italy – find out where to get a test here – but the things you can using with it will be restricted.
