Before going to the Hellovenezia office, gather the items that you'll need to submit your application for the imob.venezia card (a.k.a. "CartaVenezia"):

Your passport.
A photocopy of the page in your passport that has your photo and personal information. (This may not be strictly necessary in practice--the Hellovenezia agent didn't bother to keep our photocopies--but it's better to follow the rules and be safe than sorry.)
40 euros in cash, or a credit card such as Visa or MasterCard.

Note: In the past, you needed to supply your own passport-size photo. This is no longer necessary. (Your photo will be taken when you apply for the card.)
