Overview
The Embassy of Cape Verde in Rome is Cape Verde's diplomatic mission to Italy, processing visa applications for Italian residents and providing consular services to a well-established Cape Verdean community in Italy.
Visa Services
All travellers to Cape Verde must complete advance online registration through the EASE system (ease.gov.cv) at least 5 days before departure, regardless of nationality. This electronic registration is mandatory and includes a security fee of 30 euros. On arrival, most nationalities obtain their visa at airports and ports. ECOWAS citizens enter visa-free for 30 days. The EASE registration generates a confirmation code to present at check-in and immigration.
Consular Services
The embassy provides passport and travel document services, civil registration, document attestation and legalization, and emergency consular assistance for Cape Verdean nationals in Italy.
Trade & Export Support
Italy is home to a well-established Cape Verdean community, and the embassy's economic section supports bilateral trade promotion and business matchmaking between Cape Verdean and Italian companies.
