What is a religious visa?
Visa for religious reasons, or also seen for religious reasons, allows entry, for the purpose of a short or long-term stay, to foreign religious figures and ministers of worship belonging to religious organizations, who intend to participate in religious events, such as praying, taking part in religious festivities or celebrations, or carrying out ecclesiastical, religious or pastoral activities.

If the application is accepted, the visa will be issued, which must be used within six months from the date of issue.
The temporary stay visa for religious reasons can be issued for a maximum of 90 days and it is not possible to request renewal or extension of the visa once it has expired. However, it is possible to apply for a new visa for religious reasons at a later time, if there are still valid reasons for a further stay in Italy.
It is important to note that the temporary stay visa for religious reasons does not allow you to work in Italy. Those who wish to work in Italy during their stay must apply for a specific work visa.
