What each government says

Its level on one scale, its own wording, and a summary of its advice written from its own text

Austria0Normal precautions
Security level 1: good security

Take normal precautions because security is good, and follow the separate travel advice for Italy. Register with police within 24 hours. Comprehensive travel insurance is strongly recommended because hospital treatment can be very costly. Obey strict rules on public drunkenness and the zero tolerance policy on drug possession.

Belgium0Normal precautions
No advice against travel

Travel to San Marino can generally be undertaken safely if usual precautions are followed. Ensure you carry valid identity documents; for minors, a mutual insurance card or birth certificate is not accepted, so obtain a Kids-ID before departure. Your European health insurance card is valid, and you should bring an adapted first-aid kit and check that your mutual insurance covers risks related to your destination and activities such as diving or skiing.

Canada0Normal precautions
Exercise normal security precautions

Exercise normal security precautions in San Marino. Crime is low, but secure passports and other belongings and stay alert in public because Europe faces a risk of terrorist attacks and other violent incidents. Your passport must remain valid for your stay, and visitors staying more than 10 days must obtain a permit and register within 24 hours of arrival if staying more than three days.

Consular assistance is available through Estonia's embassy in Rome or the nearest European Union member state representation. Estonian tourists may stay visa free for up to 90 days within half a year, and drivers need a valid Estonian licence.

Take normal precautions in San Marino. Be alert to terrorism in crowded places and follow local authorities, and guard against pickpocketing and theft, especially in busy areas.

No advisory

Singapore has no travel advisory for San Marino and advises normal precautions. San Marino is accessible via Italy without border controls, so travellers must meet Schengen entry requirements and carry proof of lawful entry. Street crime is rare, but terrorist attacks cannot be ruled out; remain vigilant in crowded and tourist areas, safeguard valuables, and do not carry or consume illegal drugs.
