Updated on May 14, 2024

A significant change is coming for Taiwanese planning to travel to Italy - the introduction of the Italy ETIAS. Here’s a quick overview of what you need to know.

For those in Taiwan dreaming of an Italian getaway, the upcoming Italy ETIAS will be an essential part of your travel plans. We’re here to help you handle this new requirement with less fuss. Forget the stress of applications and start looking forward to the rich experiences in Italy.

Do Taiwanese citizens need an Italy ETIAS?

Taiwanese citizens currently benefit from visa-free access to Italy and various other European countries. However, a notable shift is approaching. Starting mid-2025, Taiwanese will be required to apply for an Italy ETIAS for short stays in Italy, covering tourism, business, or even transit purposes.

The ETIAS, short for European Travel Information and Authorization System, was unveiled to the public in 2016. Its primary objective is to bolster security within the Schengen Zone. So far, Taiwanese passport holders have enjoyed the liberty of traveling to these countries without a visa. The introduction of the ETIAS adds a layer of security, aiming to make travel safer for everyone involved.

It's important to understand that the ETIAS is not a visa. It's a travel authorization, comparable to the US ESTA and the Canada eTA, which are geared towards keeping security stringent while also facilitating smooth entry for travelers.

One of the significant benefits of the ETIAS is its wide-ranging applicability. With just one ETIAS, Taiwanese travelers can gain entry not only to Italy but to all other countries in the ETIAS system. This is particularly convenient for those wishing to visit multiple European destinations, as it negates the need for different travel documents for each country. In short, the ETIAS stands as your singular access pass to diverse European experiences.
