TARI Tax 2024
Just had my TARI bill for 2024. I used the PagoPA website to pay it online
I had major problems with it not accepting my payment - it seemed to freeze after the card details were entered.

Travelling back from Lake Orta area in N Italy, we travelled to the Simplon Pass to reach our first overnight stop in Sion.
Imagine our delight to find that a landslide has closed the pass "for the foreseeable future"

If they have tastes like mice, milk chocolate is a fantastically effective bait
I don't think you necessarily need to non-stop through France on the way to italy, only on the way back to the UK to avoid quarantine.
Don't think there are any restrictions on entry into italy from France or Switzerland

If things stay as they are now, you can avoid quarantine by staying out of France. If you drive from Switzerland into Germany, and up to Aachen on the German/Belgium border. From there it is less than 4 hrs non-stop drive to Calais across Belgium. By non-stopping, you don't have to quarantine on your return. It only adds about 2 hrs to the total journey time, and about 120 miles to the overall distance.i
Mergozzo is a beautiful place.
Have given up hope of getting to Italy this year.
Will keep you updated on changes.
(The Aachen route only adds 120 miles/2hrs to the trip back according to Via Michelin)
Has another look at the map.
If you drive through Germany as far as Aachan, you only have a 3.5 hour trip (about 210 miles) across France to Calais. A pretty easy non-stop trip.
If you drive through Switzerland (Gotthard tunnel) and into Germany (my Lorrach route) and up through Germany to Strasbourg, you could fill up with petrol and food in Germany just before entering France near Strasbourg. In theory, you could drive non stop through France to Calais and avoid the quarantine requirements. ( but no toilet stops).
380 miles approx - 6 hrs on motorway?
Good luck
From 0400hrs Saturday, France and Netherlands join Luxembourg and Belgium etc on the Quarantine List. Hope you're back in the UK before then

Plus Netherlands and others - so if you drive back from Italy, 14 days quarantine on your entry into UK from 0400 hrs BST Saturday.
