Italian Citizenship

Obtaining Italian citizenship allows you to live and work in Italy and all the European Union. The process can be based on proven descent (jus sanguinis), marriage, or extended residence. The application requires proof of family ties with Italian citizens, or compliance with residency and integration criteria within the Italian community.

‍

This service is intended for you if you have Italian descent and would like to claim your citizenship for residence, work, or study in Italy or the European Union. It is equally applicable to you if you are married to an Italian citizen or have plans to assimilate into Italian life.

‍

"Italian ancestry: Documents that prove your direct lineage from an Italian citizen.
Personal documents: Birth and marriage certificates of your Italian ancestors.
Current documents: Personal documents such as passports and IDs.
Proof of residence: In some cases, you must prove that you have lived in Italy for a specific period."

‍

"It generally takes between 6 and 12 months. For naturalization, the process may vary from 1 to 2 years, depending on your time of residence and the documents you have provided."

‍

Italian citizenship offers you the right to live and work not only in Italy but in any country of the European Union, as well as access to the health and education systems in Italy. It is your open door to a rich cultural heritage and opportunities to do business in one of the biggest markets of Europe.
