Milano

Travelling between Lyon and Milan is simple with Air France.

Formalities for travelling

One of the advantages of belonging to the European Union is that nationals from every country in the EU and the European Economic Area (EEA) may travel to Italy without a visa. Only a valid passport (or identity card) is required.

• Remember that unaccompanied minors must have a valid passport or identity card, an authorization to leave the territory signed by a parent or guardian along with a copy of the signing parent's identity document.
• Several other countries (29 in total), including Canada, Monaco and Switzerland, are also exempt from visa requirements for stays under 90 days.

To find out about formalities for entering into Italian territory applicable to your nationality, please contact the Italian embassy or consulate in your home country.
