Exercise increased caution

Overview

There are more significant safety or security concerns than you would usually find in New Zealand. Italy has a higher threat of terrorism and you can expect to see increased security presence across the country. 

Other things that New Zealanders travelling or living in Italy should be aware of are:

  • Crime - watch out for petty crime, such as theft, especially in urban centres, tourist areas, and on public transport. 
  • Civil unrest - demonstrations and protests are common, and can disrupt travel plans. 
  • Earthquakes and other seismic activity.

See below for detailed travel advice.
