I recieved a Schengen Visa from the Italian embassy with a validity of 6 months.?

Question

I will definitely travel to Italy within the time period but would like to know if I would be able to travel to France and Spain before first going to Italy (I have heard that one must first enter the country that the Schengen was issued in?) Is that correct? Or would I be able to travel to any other Schengen countries before first traveling to Italy? Thank you very much for your assitance.

Answer 1

its valid for Italy and brief visits  to  others

Answer 2

Enter the country of the embassy where the Schengen visa was issued.

Answer 3

yes you can but u have the confirm ticket for italy also some time immigration people can ask but u can go dont wory

Answer 4

The requirements are that you receive the Schengen visa from the country through which you will enter the Schengen Zone, OR, the country in which you anticipate spending the majority of your time.  So, as long as you intend to spend the majority of your time in Italy, there should not be any problems.
