When applying, there is a non-refundable mandatory visa fee which every applicant must pay to the Consulate when submitting the application.
Visa fees vary depending on the type of visa and age of the applicant, as well as other variables indicated below.
Visa fees can be paid in cash, by money order/bank draft payable to the Consulate General of Italy in Toronto (Canadian dollars only).
Visa fees include a visa fee and a service fee. Should the visa be denied, the money paid at the time of application will not be refunded.
Because of the fluctuation of the exchange rate, the type of visa and duration of stay, the fees are subject to change.
Please consult regularly our updated list of Consular Fees.
