Italian Dual Citizenship in Florida

Italian citizenship might seem like a far-off day-dream, but the surprisingly generous Italian citizenship law makes it an achievable dream for many Floridians.

It’s common for a U.S. citizen to meet the eligibility requirements of Italian and American citizenship without even knowing that they do. Whether by jure sanguinis (Italian citizenship by descent) or jure matrimonii (Italian citizenship by marriage), you can take reasonable steps to get dual citizenship.

Advantages of Italian Dual Citizenship

Becoming an Italian citizen can seem like a long process you might not want to go through—however, Italian dual citizenship is worth it in the end.

Here are the Italian citizenship benefits to consider:

Employment opportunities, so you can work in Italy
The right to work and live anywhere in the European Union, not just Italy
Easy travel throughout the EU
The invaluable ability to pass down Italian citizenship to your family
Access to high-quality education
Legal protection under Italian citizenship law, including from the Italian embassy abroad

There are a few ways to gain Italian citizenship and an Italian passport from the Italian government. You can apply through a few different ways, including descent, marriage, or naturalization.

You will likely have to do a lot of Italian genealogy research to qualify for Italian citizenship, which is why it’s important to have an expert on hand to help you pull it all together.

What you may have to gather could include:

Italian civil records such as a birth certificate, death certificate, and more
Other Italian legal documents from an Italian ancestor, such as a certificate of naturalization
Marriage certificate
Translations for documents
Apostilles for U.S. documents

Every case is different, but experts can take a look and determine what you specifically require to become an Italian citizen. We’ll thoroughly look at your Italian ancestry and do the research for you, being clear every step of the way.

Once you have everything, you will have to apply to the Italian consulate. This is the final step in your journey to become an Italian citizen. After that, you can apply for an Italian passport.

However, the process is different if you apply in Italy, as it’ll involve applying to the courts there. We can still help you with aspects of becoming an Italian citizen that way. For example, you may still need research on an Italian ancestor.
