Visa and Immigration
You will require a visa to travel to Rome, Italy, from India. Since Italy is a member of the European Union (EU), you will require a Schengen visa. Make sure that your passport is valid for a minimum of three months and that you have sufficient funds to cover the cost of your trip.
Tourists are permitted to stay for up to 90 days from the date of entry, which is a short stay. If your stay exceeds 90 days, you will need to apply for a long-stay visa. Multiple-entry visas for Italy are also available for those who travel regularly to the EU.
