When traveling to Rome, will I get my passport checked at FCO or?
Assuming that you have a direct flight from Canada to Italy, Your passport will be checked by airline staff in Canada to make sure that you will be admitted to Italy. If you need a visa in advance, they will also want to see that. Your passport (and any necessary visa) will be checked on your arrival in Italy, and your passport will be stamped with an admission to the Schengen Area, which includes most of the members of the European Union. (After that, you can travel to other Schengen countries by land, sdea or air without going through border controls.) If you are a Canadian citizen, I dont think you need a visa to enter Italy or the rest of the Schengen Area as a tourist just a passport.
