Consejos de llegada a Rome–Fiumicino Leonardo da Vinci International Airport

If you arrive from outside the Schengen area, you go through passport control first. Non-EU travelers are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES), fully operational since 10 April 2026; the planned ETIAS travel authorization is not yet in operation.

After passport control, collect your bags in the baggage hall of your arrival terminal and pass through customs into the public arrivals hall. Terminals 1 and 3 sit side by side, so check which one you landed in before meeting anyone.

Outside arrivals, official taxi stands are in front of both Terminal 1 and Terminal 3. Use only white licensed taxis with a TAXI sign on the roof, and decline offers from people who approach you inside the terminal. Pre-booked drivers usually wait in the arrivals hall holding a name sign. The railway station for the Leonardo Express and regional trains is reached on foot from the terminals, across from Terminal 1.

Rome has hot, dry summers and mild, wetter winters. The local time is Central European Time, and the currency is the euro.
