Citizenship Services

Citizenship can begin long before the application itself.

From genealogical research and document retrieval to translation, legalisation and preparation of the application, we support clients through the different stages involved in citizenship matters.

Our work includes citizenship-related services connected with European nationalities, Brazil, Canada and the United States, depending on the circumstances of each case.

Different routes. One carefully structured process.

Citizenship matters often involve more than one stage. The route may depend on ancestry, marriage, the documents available and the requirements of the relevant authority. Our role is to help organise that process with greater clarity.

Italian Citizenship

Support from ancestry research to application preparation.

We work in partnership with Sergio Garana, a specialist supporting clients with Italian citizenship matters.

  • Preparation of documentation for citizenship by jure sanguinis
  • Citizenship applications through marriage to an Italian citizen
  • Requesting documents in Italy on your behalf
  • Document translation
  • Legalisation of documents

Where the process requires steps to be completed in Italy, our local team can also assist clients in dealing with the relevant governmental bodies.

Genealogical Research

Sometimes the first step is finding the history behind the application.

Citizenship by ancestry often depends on documents that may be difficult to locate. Genealogical research can involve several sources and may become particularly important when information about an ancestor is incomplete — for example, when the exact place of birth is unknown.

Online and historical databases
State and Diocesan archives
Church records
Municipal and civil records
Direct searches with local authorities
Research services covering Italy and Brazil
The purpose of the research is to locate the documentation required to support the citizenship process and create a clearer documentary path before the application moves forward.
