Our ski liability insurance for Italy and South Tyrol

What else needs to be considered during a skiing vacation in Italy?

• Entry regulations in the country: Here it is recommended to visit the site of the Foreign Office, as this is always kept up to date. Click here to go to the site.
   
• Promille limit on the slopes: In Italy, a blood alcohol limit of 0.5 per mille applies to skiers and snowboarders. However, if this value is exceeded, you can be fined between 250 and 1,000 euros. From 0.8 per mille or higher, it is considered a criminal offense and can be sanctioned accordingly. Insurance coverage can also be forfeited if the blood alcohol level is too high. It is therefore always recommended not to drink alcohol before skiing or snowboarding to avoid the risk of accidents and fines.
   
• Compulsory helmet use in Italy: As of January 1, 2022, Italy has extended compulsory helmet use for all skiers, snowboarders and sledders up to the age of 18. It is also important to make sure that the helmet has a CE mark, which indicates that it complies with the applicable EU directives and is safe.
