What to know about mobile data in Italy
Italy is in the EU roaming area. Two states inside its borders are not on the EU list: San Marino and Vatican City, so look for them by name if your route includes them. 3G has largely been retired: Vodafone and TIM closed theirs in 2021 and 2022, and WindTre scheduled its shutdown to finish by the end of 2025. Expect drops in Alpine and Apennine valleys and in the long rail tunnels between major cities.
Before you go
- Download tickets and maps before boarding trains through the mountains. Tunnels interrupt data regardless of which plan you hold.
- Crossing into Switzerland from the lakes or the Alps takes you out of the EU roaming area. Confirm Switzerland is listed before you rely on data there.
- Ferries to Sardinia, Sicily, Greece or Croatia may switch your phone to an onboard satellite network offshore. Use airplane mode during the crossing.
