Citizenship through the father

Italian paternal citizenship is a right guaranteed by Italian legislation, which allows children of Italian parents to obtain Italian citizenship. This right is automatically transmitted from parent to child, regardless of the descendant's place of birth or current residence. This way, even if the descendant has never lived in Italy or has no knowledge of Italian culture and customs, he or she can claim Italian citizenship.

To obtain Italian citizenship via your father's side, you must prove your Italian ancestry through documents such as birth, marriage and death certificates of your Italian ancestors. Furthermore, it is necessary to follow a bureaucratic process that can vary from according to the specific situation of each descendant. After obtaining Italian citizenship, the individual has access to various benefits, such as the possibility of living and working in any country in the European Union, in addition to being able to take advantage of Italian public services.
