What the sources say

US CDC Travelers' Health

Advises travellers that tap water is generally safe to drink in Vatican City.

Numbeo

0.0/100 on the water drinkability and accessibility index, which Numbeo reads as “Very low”. This one is crowdsourced from residents rather than measured.

Safe nationally still means ask locally. Older buildings can carry lead or copper pipework, and a single street can differ from the network feeding it. If you are staying somewhere old, ask your host.
