Question

I wiil tyravel in Rome in few days and I would like to know if going to Vatican needs showing the passport!

Thank you all in advance

Answer 1

all like in Italy , with same special differences:

Pope audience, Vatican museum visit, Vatican library and archive, so you need passport or identity card:)

Answer 2

I am a U.S. citizen and I have been to the Vatican City many times and have never needed a passport.  In fact, if you did not know its history, you would not even think that it was separate from the rest of Rome.  You can cross the street and walk right in - I have never been stopped, questioned or even know I was entering a different "country."  I suppose that perhaps if you were there on business or for some official business then it might be necessary, but for the average tourist to visit I seriously doubt any passport would be required.  

However, since you will be there as a visitor it is always advisable to carry your passport with you anyway - you never know when you might need it.

Enjoy the Vatican City - I love it there!

Answer 3

No passport needed. Though Vatican is technically a city state in it;s own right, separate to Italy and it's government, for most purposes it is practically part of Italy (like the Republic of San Marino). Just a gate, walk in :)

Answer 6

Nope, just walk onto St. Peter's Square right off the street.  There isn't a guard or anything.

Np passport required. Go there every year.

Answer 8

Only people with a special permit can get into Vatican city or who is living there,  You can only get to St Peter Square and visit Vatican Museum and St peter and Paul Cathedral part of the Vatican but not inside the Vatican. I am from Rome but I never been inside Vatican city.

Answer 9

No, you don't need it.
