Practical tips

  • If you have a Questura, Prefettura or Comune appointment on 20 Nov, check whether the office is open or reschedule early.
  • If you're flying on 21 Nov, check your flight and your rights in case of cancellation.
  • If a strike makes you miss an appointment with a legal deadline (e.g. a renewal), keep proof: it helps justify the delay.
