Responds Anna Malyukova, World of Transactions
For traveling abroad you must first obtain a new foreign passport. Then get a Schengen visa. In addition to the questionnaire, photos, insurance, you need to provide a copy of the pension certificate with the original and an extract from the bank about the account status at the Visa Center of the Italian Embassy. As a rule, it is enough 60 EUR for 1 day stay in Italy for one person. There must also be confirmation of accommodation in Italy and air tickets in both directions. By collecting this package of documents, you can apply for a visa to visit this country.
