Grandchildren, Children & Citizenship by Marriage
For grandchildren, children of Italians, and spouses of Italian citizens
Current Italian law allows access to Italian citizenship through an administrative process in certain cases of descent, and, through a specific procedure, by marriage to an Italian citizen.
At Sconfinia we review every case before starting the process to determine its viability, identify the right path and establish exactly which documentation will be needed.
Italian citizenship for children and grandchildren
Children and grandchildren who fall within the cases established by current regulations can apply for recognition of Italian citizenship by descent before the competent Italian Consulate based on their place of residence.
Our work starts with an analysis of the family line and the relevant records to determine the chances of recognition and the requirements that apply to your case. Once viability is confirmed, we prepare the complete file for filing at the consulate. We handle:
- 1Searching for and obtaining the required Italian records.
- 2Obtaining records and documentation from the country of residence and any other countries involved in the family line, when necessary.
- 3Apostille and translation of the relevant documentation.
- 4Reviewing, organizing and preparing the complete file according to the applicable requirements.
- 5Putting together individual or family folders, depending on each case.
- 6Assistance finding and booking the consular appointment, aiming for the earliest date available.
