What is a Religious Visa?

A Religious Visa, also known as a Visa for Worship purposes, allows foreign religious officials and ministers belonging to confessional organizations to enter Italy for short or long-term stays to participate in worship activities such as praying, attending religious holidays or celebrations, or performing ecclesiastical, religious or pastoral activities.

What documents are required to apply for a Religious Visa?

The following documents must be presented to the Italian Embassy in the applicant’s country of residence when applying for a visa:

• A completed and accurately signed visa application form;

The temporary stay visa for religious purposes can be issued for a maximum duration of 90 days, and it is not possible to request a renewal or extension of the visa once it has expired. However, it is possible to request a new religious visa at a later time if there are still valid reasons for further stay in Italy.

It is important to note that the temporary stay visa for religious purposes does not allow for work activities in Italy. Those who wish to work in Italy during their stay must apply for a specific work visa.
