Italy Schengen Visa Overview
The Italy Schengen Visa is a uniform short-stay (Type C) visa issued through the Italy consulate that allows eligible travellers to enter Italy and travel across all 29 Schengen countries, with a permitted stay of up to 90 days within any 180-day period across the Schengen Area combined (the 90/180 rule), subject to the entries and dates granted and current Schengen entry rules. It is suitable for tourism, business and family visits, from Rome to popular destinations such as Venice, Florence and the Amalfi Coast. You apply through Italy when it is your main destination or your first point of entry into the Schengen Area. A Schengen visa requires an in-person appointment for document submission and biometrics at the consulate or visa centre. UgoVisa's service fee for the Italy Schengen visa is AED 800. The Schengen consular visa fee and visa-centre service fees are separate and not included. Travel medical insurance is included in the service fee.
