There is no prohibition against Muslims visiting the Vatican. In addition, there are diplomatic Muslim missions in Vatican as a state.

However, in some western countries; including the Vatican; they prohibit women from covering their faces. Covering faces using veils is not a requirement per Islamic teachings but is applied in some countries as a matter of local traditions and practices.
