Please be advised that from 7:00 p.m. on 12 February 2026 until 1:00 a.m. (on 18 February 2026), the VIS operating system will be temporarily unavailable.
The interruption is due to a scheduled and urgent technical intervention that will temporarily suspend the receipt and processing of visa applications, as well as the issuance of entry visas. This suspension will affect the operations of the visa office of the Italian Embassy in Athens.
