Perugia

Italy can be visited visa-free for up to 90 days by citizens of most European countries, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, Israel, UAE and most countries in America. If you are unsure whether or not you need to apply for a visa, we recommend contacting the embassy or consulate in your country. International (non-Schengen) travelers need a passport that is valid for at least 3 months after the end of their intended trip in order to enter the Schengen zone. Citizens of Schengen countries can travel without a passport, but must have a valid ID with them during their stay.

You can find the main post office in the historic centre but if you only need stamps you can buy them at a tabacchi - the small tobacco shops you can find all over town. You recognise them by the ‘T’ sign outside.

If you need medical help (including dental help) over the weekend or on public holidays Farmacia San Martino at Piazza Matteotti 26 is the place to go. It also has a night service.

Country code: +39 Area code: 075 (also dialled in Perugia) If you call Italy from abroad, you must always dial zero in the area code (do not omit it as is the general practice when making international telephone calls), e.g. +39 075 + the number.
