If you require information regarding a local host in Italy, you will need to obtain those details directly from your hotel or other lodging provider, as they will serve as your local host for accommodation purposes. 

Important Travel Information:

Starting in late 2026, most travelers from visa-exempt countries will need ETIAS approval before entering EU countries in the Schengen Area.

Who needs an ETIAS?
The ETIAS applies to travelers from visa-exempt countries, including the US, UK, Canada, Australia, Japan, and many others. If you previously entered Europe without a visa, you will now need an ETIAS.
