Driving

If you hold a valid Eu driving license or a  Non Eu driving license that should be accompanied by an International Driving Permit, you are entitled to freely drive in Italy under certain conditions.

Be aware that a car insurance is compulsory for all types of vehicles.

Things to know

A 'green card' (carta verde) - temporary frontier insurance valid for 15, 30, 45, 90, 180 days - can be purchased before crossing Italian borders. It is compulsory only for vehicles registered in other countries except for those registered in Eu and EEA countries.
