Health insurance for tourist visa
The Roma Parioli Liegi Agency – Generali Italia S.p.A. for years has made available to non-EU citizens who travel for tourism reasons, an insurance policy that complies with the provisions of the law for the purpose of issuing a tourist visa.
The health policy can only be obtained by joining the Welcome Association Italy through the special site where you need to register. The payment can be made by credit card, Paypal or bank transfer.
