Electric Skateboards in Italy
2026 Regulations
In Italy, electric skateboard regulations remain unclear. Here's what we know and our advice for riding safely.
🧭 Official Status
In Italy, electric skateboards do not yet have an official legal framework.
The law now regulates electric scooters, and e-skates should soon follow the same path.
In the meantime, they are operating in a grey area close to being regulated.
⚙️ Legal Conditions
Top speed: 20 km/h (and 6 km/h in pedestrian areas).
Mandatory equipment: brakes, front/rear lights, indicators, horn, and reflective elements.
Helmet mandatory for all users.
Prohibition of carrying passengers, animals, or bulky objects.
From July 2025:
→ registration plate,
→ mandatory insurance,
→ compliance with new technical standards.Fines from €100 to €400 in case of non-compliance.
📋 And for e-skates?
❌ Not mentioned in the law → therefore neither authorised nor clearly prohibited.
However, everything indicates that the same obligations as for scooters (registration plate, helmet, insurance, top speed) could soon apply.
Until then, riding on public roads remains legally risky and depends on local tolerance.
📋 📌 Rider Tips
Ride at a moderate speed and avoid heavy traffic areas.
Helmet and lighting are mandatory if you want to be visible and taken seriously.
No passengers, no loads.
Stick to cycle paths or private spaces.
Be discreet: the enforcement of rules varies greatly between cities.
🏁 In Summary
Italy is in regulatory transition: scooters are regulated, e-skates will soon follow.
For now, it's a grey area: it's best to ride cautiously, well-equipped, and respect speed limits to avoid penalties.
