    You should contact your responsible Italian consulate in Spain so they can determine what type of alert this actually is and if it can be adapted to exclude known EU-Citizens.

    And you should also exercise your right to access your personal data in SIS to have an official confirmation you aren't in it, this may help you in further entries. This is done through the Policia Nacional since you reside in Spain

  • @MarkJohnson: I will do that. The track record of efficiency of my local Italian consulate is, to use a euphemism, less than stellar. It might take a while before I can update this question with the answer (if at all).

    @NicolasFormichella: great suggestion. I just sent the request on-line. I will update once I have a response.

  • Most SIS alerts aren't applicable to EU citizens. That's certainly the case for an alert for refusal of entry and stay. Enquiring doesn't hurt but it's unlikely there is any confusion or that anything can be done about the type of alert. The thing is that if the name and date of birth match that of an alert, border guards are bound to wonder whether the passport is genuine. There isn't really much else to check regarding an Italian citizen.
