What you'll need at the border
San Marino is not a member of the European Union or European Economic Area. However, it maintains an open border with Italy. Since San Marino is only accessible via Italy, entrance by land or sea is not possible without entering the Schengen Area first, so Schengen visa rules apply de facto. A small airport exists wihin the territory of San Marino which hosts regular charter flights. Foreign visitors (except Italy) staying more than 90 days in San Marino must obtain a permit from the government.

Cash vs. Card
Like other states which have the euro as their currency, San Marino has its own patterns on the back of the euro coins. You can try to obtain these coins by going around buying things and collecting the coins that way, but a quicker solution is to buy the set in a souvenir shop. Pay attention, because some of these sets lack the €1 and €2 coins.
