Italy to Greece visa requirements
No visa needed. Italian citizens travel to Greece under EU freedom of movement and may enter with a valid passport or a valid Italian national identity card. There is no 90/180 limit, no ETIAS, and no entry fee. Both Italy and Greece are members of the European Union and the Schengen Area. As an EU citizen, an Italian ordinary passport holder enjoys the right of free movement and does not need a visa, an ETIAS travel authorisation, or any prior permission to travel to Greece for tourism or a short visit. Entry is permitted with either a valid Italian passport or a valid Italian national identity card (carta d'identita). Because Greece is inside the Schengen Area, there are normally no systematic checks at internal borders, although Schengen states may reintroduce temporary border controls in exceptional circumstances, so a valid travel document should always be carried. The Schengen 90-days-in-180 short-stay rule and the upcoming ETIAS authorisation apply only to non-EU/non-Schengen nationals, not to Italian citizens. There is no time limit on how long an Italian may remain; stays beyond three months only trigger a simple registration formality with local authorities, not a visa. The travel document must be valid on the day of travel for the full duration of the stay.
