External users from Italy and Countries on List A are granted access to our site to perform experiments approved by the NFFA-Trieste review panels, without any limitation.

Users from Countries on List C

External users from a Country on List C (European Union and Schengen area) must:

1. fill out the Digital Passenger Locator Form before entering Italy;
