ITALIAN VISA

         My chosen country for today's travel is Italy. Famous for its various landmarks and tourist spots like the Vatican Museum, the ancient Rome and the Colosseum, Sistine Chapel and many more, one can experience a lifetime remarkable journey in the whole of Italy.

          Short background of the country:  "Italy is  aunitary parliamentary republic in Southern Europe. To the north, Italy borders France, Switzerland, Austria, and Slovenia. To the south, it consists of the entirety of the Italian Peninsula and the two islands of Sicily and Sardinia. Italy has a 59.7 million inhabitants and it is also the fourth-largest economy on the European continent, third in the European Union, and eight in the world."-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italy

          Just like any travel to a desired country, anybody who would like to enter Italy has to provide visa to enter the country. The Italian embassy in the Philippines is on this address:   


Embassy of Italy
6th Floor, Zeta Condominium
191 Salcedo Street
Legaspi Village
Makati City
Philippines
Telephone: 6328924531
Fax: 6328171436


          One of those sights that can help anyone to enquire about how to secure a visa to Italy, he/she can look at this link for information: http://touringbuddy.com/visa-requirements-philippine-passport-holders-%E2%80%93-italy-italian-republic/

          If applying from the Philippines, one needs to call the Italian Embassy to book an appointment. And aside from one's appointment, there is also a scheduled personal appearance at the embassy though in some cases, this is not required. Normally the processing of one's visa will take 3 weeks.

          Regarding the payment, manager's cheque is preferred over personal cheque. Another option to make a payment is by paying on cash. Hope this summary of information will assist anybody who aspires to visit Italy soon or later.
