Italy to throw open its borders on June 3

The Italian government is easing travel restrictions to allow people to move freely inside the region where they live as of Monday, and between regions starting June 3.

Italy will throw open its borders next month, effectively ending Europe’s longest and strictest coronavirus lockdown, just as the summer tourism season gets under way.

Both regional and international borders will open on June 3, with the government eliminating a 14-day quarantine for anyone arriving from abroad, it was announced on Saturday.
