Become An
Italian Citizen

Italian citizenship is currently regulated by the Italian Law no. 91/1992 as amended since which sets out the legislation applicable to descendants of Italian citizens claiming citizenship and foreigners applying for Italian citizenship. As of 1992, Italian law also recognizes the right to hold more than one citizenship simultaneously and offers the opportunity to acquire or regain Italian citizenship if lost under previous regulations.
Generally, you might be entitled to Italian citizenship if you:
  • Are a descendant of an Italian citizen
  • Are married to an Italian citizen
  • Have been a resident of Italy
  • Were born in Italy
  • Had the Italian citizenship and lost it

Our Testimonials

“My case was managed by Davide, who was friendly, efficient and professional at all times. He guided me through the bewildering array of paperwork required and covered very possible difficulty that might arise, to ensure that my application would have the best chance. At my appointment with the Consulate the woman dealing with my file said it was one of the best presented sets of paperwork she had seen, she actually said it was ‘perfect’, and made her job much easier. Thank you Davide for making the process so smooth. Highly recommended, I would definitely use them again. Very professional and prompt service, always helpful. I would definitely use again and recommend to others.”

-S.G.

I wanted to apply for Italian citizenship by descent and my case was a little complicated. The service provided was second to none; Davide helped me understand what was required for the application and helped me compile the necessary documentation. I am delighted to say that just 5 months after he put the paperwork together and my application was submitted to the consolato italiano, I received notification that it was successful. Sono ora cittadino italiano. Grazie Davide!

-M.C.

Very professional and prompt service, always helpful. I would definitely use again and recommend to others.

-M.D.

Very helpful and friendly company

-D.P.

For anyone that has tried to navigate the complex rules and requirements with the consulate can understand it is very difficult. Davide guided me through the process, documentation requirements and obtained the necessary italian court certifications to allow me to apply for my sons passport. Davide was very responsive and knew his stuff. I would highly recommended using Davide for any matters relating to Italian citizenship. I found Davide via google and during COVID we were able to finalise the application.

FAQ

Where do I apply for Italian citizenship?

You must apply for citizenship through the Italian Authority in whose jurisdiction you legally reside for the majority of the calendar year. If you live half the year in one jurisdiction, and the other half of the year in another, you must declare ONE of your residences as your permanent residence and submit proof of that residence at your appointment.

Can I submit my Italian citizenship application to another Consulate or Italian Authority if they have an earlier appointment, even if I don’t have my residence in that jurisdiction?
NO. You must apply through the Consulate/Italian Authority in whose jurisdiction you reside.
Do I have to speak Italian to be able to apply for Italian citizenship?

Citizenship by MARRIAGE – YES
Citizenship by DESCENT – It is not mandatory.

How do I know if I qualify for Italian citizenship by descent?
Italian citizenship can be acquired by descent at the time of one’s birth, as long as one parent was an Italian citizen at the time. Due to previous laws in force before the formation of the Italian Republic women can only transmit citizenship to children born after 1 January 1948. Prior to this date, only fathers could transmit the Italian citizenship. Any claim for Italian citizenship must be supported by documentary evidence.
Is there any limit on generations?
No – as long as you do not skip generations to qualify. Applicants can apply for citizenship starting with their most recent ancestor born In Italy after 17 March 1861, or with their most recent ancestor born BEFORE the formation of Italy who died AFTER 17 March 1861.
Is there any consular fee to get Italian citizenship?
As of 8 July 2014, every application for the recognition of Italian citizenship by descent (jure sanguinis) is subject to a non-refundable administrative fee (irrespective of the outcome) of 300 EUR. This fee only applies to adult applicants (18+) and must be paid on the day of lodging. By contrast, applications by marriage are subject to a non-refundable fee of 250 Eur.
How long does it take to get Italian citizenship?
Once the relevant documents have been produced to the relevant Consulate General/Town Hall/Prefettura, the process might take up to 2 years to complete for Italian citizenship jure sanguinis applications, whereas 4 years is the term for applications by marriage.
Can you do anything to expedite the process?
No, there is nothing we can do to speed up the process. It all depends on the ability of the Italian authorities to deal with each request.
I am struggling to secure an appointment. Can you help?
Prenota online is the only means made available by the Italian Authorities to book an appointment for Italian citizenship by descent. Although we can help you understand how to use the platform, the booking of an appointment is your own responsibility.
Can I have multiple people attend one appointment?
NO. Only ONE applicant per appointment slot is permitted. If multiple family members are over 18 years old and wish to apply for citizenship, they must EACH schedule their OWN INDIVIDUAL APPOINTMENT(S) and submit the required documentation on that day.
Can I use photocopies? No, you cannot use photocopies, or your application will be denied. All certificates are required to be certified long-form copies issued from a state or local authority.
Will I get my documents back after I present at the consulate?
No, you will not. The consulate will send your documents to the respective comune through which you applied, and the documents will not be returned to you.
