Italian Dual Citizenship Documents

Main Service

As a professional Italian genealogist, I specialize in obtaining Italian dual citizenship documents directly from civil and parish archives across Italy.

Applying for Italian dual citizenship requires official documents from Italy that prove your direct ancestry. These records are often essential for recognition jure sanguinis but can be difficult to obtain if you live abroad.

As a professional Italian genealogist based in Milan, I help families worldwide access the certified Italian records required by consulates and courts. I work directly with civil registration offices and parish archives to retrieve birth, marriage, and death certificates, either in extract form (estratto per riassunto) or as full copies (copia integrale).

Every ancestor leaves a trace — my work is to bring it back to light.”

Every document is delivered with complete references, and I also provide English translations when needed. This ensures your citizenship application is supported by accurate and legally valid records.

Share what you know, and I’ll design a research plan tailored to your goals.

Extracts (estratto per riassunto) and full copies (copia integrale) of birth, marriage, and death records. Positive/negative certificates, corrections, and statements of consistency (congruità/discordanza).

When civil records are unavailable, parish registers provide baptism, marriage, and burial acts that are often accepted for citizenship cases.

Turnaround & Pricing Note

The time required to obtain certified Italian records varies depending on the municipality or parish. Most projects take 4–8 weeks, though some offices may require additional time for processing.

My professional fee covers the research, coordination, and reporting. However, official fees charged by Italian municipalities or parishes are not included. These vary significantly and can range from €250 to €600 per document.

In some cases, the municipality ships the certified paper document directly to you. In other cases, I receive the record first and arrange international tracked shipping for secure delivery.
