Italian citizenship is the official recognition of your right to be a citizen of Italy, allowing you to live, work, and study in any country within the European Union. Furthermore, it offers cultural, legal, and global mobility benefits, significantly expanding your opportunities and quality of life.

In 2025, direct descendants of Italians, spouses of Italian citizens, and individuals with long-term residency in Italy are eligible to apply for citizenship. The most important step is to provide documents that prove your connection to your Italian ancestor and meet the requirements established by current legislation.

Typically, you must provide documents such as a birth certificate, criminal background check, and proof of your connection to the Italian citizen, such as the birth certificate of your Italian grandfather, grandmother, mother, or father.

For expedited naturalization requests, you will need to provide the following documentation:

• Proof of Italian descent: all relevant documentation demonstrating your Italian origin. This documentation includes all marriage, birth, and death certificates for all ancestors up to the primary ancestor who was originally born in an Italian municipality.
• Income statements for the previous three years - For the purpose of a long-term residence permit, you must meet the requirements regarding income, housing, and the absence of pending legal proceedings.
• Criminal Record: No convictions for any of the offenses listed in Book II, Title I, Chapters I, II, and III of the Penal Code. No convictions for an intentional crime for which the law stipulates a legal penalty of at least three years in prison.
• Oath of allegiance to the Republic.

Birth, marriage, death, and naturalization certificates (if applicable) must be translated into Italian by a sworn translator. These documents are essential for the application to be accepted.

There is no limit to the number of generations for those who can apply for Italian citizenship. If you have an ancestor born in Italy, regardless of whether they were a grandparent, great-grandparent, great-great-grandparent, or a more distant relative, you may be eligible. The essential factor is to provide documents that prove the relationship and the line of descent back to the Italian ancestor.

To prove that your ancestor kept their Italian citizenship, you must present documents such as naturalization certificates or negative certificates of naturalization. These documents confirm that they remained Italian even after emigrating.

If naturalization occurred before the children were born, there may be a break in the line of citizenship transmission. If it happened afterward, the right is maintained, and you can apply as usual.

Italian citizenship by residency can be requested by individuals who have lived legally in Italy for at least 10 years. To do so, you must provide proof of legal residency and integration into Italian society, which includes basic knowledge of the language and cultural adaptation.

The cost of the Italian citizenship process varies based on the complexity of the case and includes expenses such as sworn translations, document apostilles, and consular fees. If you choose to hire specialized assistance, costs can range from R$ 10,000 to R$ 50,000, depending on the chosen route and the number of applicants.
