Obtaining Italian citizenship by descent can be a rewarding but complex journey for those with Italian ancestry. This process involves gathering important documents like birth, marriage, and naturalization certificates, and navigating through legal steps to prove your connection to Italy. Becoming an Italian citizen opens up opportunities such as the ability to live and work across the EU, access to Italian healthcare, and the chance to immerse yourself in the culture as an expat. In this episode of Not Your Average Globetrotter hosted by Rafael Di Furia, we’ll walk through the essentials of obtaining citizenship by descent, discuss some of the common challenges, and share tips for making your move to Italy as smooth as possible.
