Gain EU citizenship via the Judicial Path in Italy

Let our experts handle the complexities while you dream about your European future. We manage every document, translation, and courtroom detail end-to-end—and if the judge says no, you pay nothing. No passport? No payment. That's our promise.

Separating Fact from Fiction

Don't let misinformation derail your path to citizenship

The Misconception

Many believe the March 2025 decree eliminates all paths to citizenship by descent. This is false and has caused unnecessary panic among Italian Americans seeking their rightful citizenship.

The Reality

If you're the descendant of an Italian-born citizen, your right to citizenship through jure sanguinis remains valid and protected by constitutional and EU law.

GlobalPassport's Expert Assessment

Our legal team has thoroughly analyzed the recent decree. The changes primarily affect distant relatives beyond grandchildren and certain special cases, not the standard jure sanguinis process that applies to most grandchildren of Italian citizens.

We continue to successfully process applications for clients with Italian grandparents, maintaining our high approval rate even after the decree announcement.

However, we recommend initiating your application process soon to ensure you're covered under the current interpretation of the law.

Your Rights Are Still Protected

The 2025 decree cannot override these fundamental legal foundations

Constitutional Violations

The decree violates fundamental constitutional principles of equal treatment and due process.

EU Law Conflicts

European Union law supersedes national legislation that restricts citizenship rights arbitrarily.

Retroactive Application

Laws cannot be applied retroactively to eliminate existing rights without compensation.

Discriminatory Treatment

The decree creates unfair distinctions between similarly situated citizenship applicants.

Questionable Urgency

No demonstrated urgent need justifies bypassing normal legislative procedures and safeguards.

Established Precedent

Decades of court decisions support your right to citizenship through bloodline descent.

Why Your Italian Birthright Still Applies

Italian citizenship follows the principle of jure sanguinis (right of blood), meaning citizenship is passed from parent to child regardless of where the child is born. This fundamental principle remains unchanged and protected by constitutional law.
Ancestor didn't naturalize before child's birth
Your Italian ancestor must not have become a U.S. citizen before your parent was born.
Lineage is documentable
You can obtain birth, marriage, and death certificates proving the family line.
No breaks in the chain
Each generation must have transmitted citizenship to the next without interruption.

Why the Judicial Path Remains Your Best Option

The courts remain the strongest defender of your citizenship rights

Constitutional Protection

Your citizenship rights are protected by Italy's constitution, which cannot be overridden by administrative decrees.

Established Precedent

Italian courts have consistently ruled in favour of jure sanguinis claims, creating strong legal precedent.

EU Law Protection

European Union citizenship laws provide additional protection against discriminatory national legislation.

Legitimate Expectations

Courts recognize your legitimate expectation to citizenship based on established law and family heritage.
