But be careful,<\/strong> there is an Italian Law on administrative proceedings, Law no. 241 of 1990, art. 3 (the Italian Administrative Procedure Act),<\/a>  which provides that every measure of the public administration must be reasoned.<\/strong> The reasoning must indicate the factual grounds and the legal reasons that determined the administration’s decision, in relation to the findings of the inquiry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore you must always request the specific reason that led the Embassy official to refuse the visa for Italy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If one of the reasons for the visa refusal is an alert from the SIS database (Schengen Information System), you should contact a lawyer to find out which State issued the alert and for what reason it was made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
