The Programme

Why We Limit
Intake to Twelve

The path to Italian citizenship demands meticulous, personalised attention at every stage — from the Elective Residence Visa through to the Presidential Decree. We do not operate at volume. Each engagement receives the full attention of our senior advisory team.

We accept a maximum of twelve new clients per annual cycle. This is not a marketing device. It is a structural necessity that allows us to maintain the standard of service — and the track record — that our clients require.

"Those who are accepted are not merely clients.
They are members of a carefully curated programme."

Applications are reviewed by our senior partners. We conduct a preliminary assessment of every applicant before extending an engagement offer. If you do not meet the criteria, we will tell you clearly — and at no cost.

Eligibility

Who May Apply

The path to Italian citizenship via the Elective Residence route is open to non-EU nationals worldwide — your current country of residence is irrelevant. What matters is your financial profile and your genuine intention to establish legal residence in Italy.

This programme is designed for you if:

  • You are a non-EU national seeking a secure, permanent European future for yourself and your family
  • You have independent financial means that do not rely on active employment in Italy
  • You value discretion, quality and a fully managed process over a self-service approach
  • You are able to visit Italy on three occasions during the process for mandatory appointments (biometrics, permit collection, and passport issuance) — no long-term stay or minimum residency period in Italy is required
  • You hold a clean personal and legal background and can demonstrate this through standard documentation

Your current country of residence does not matter. We guide clients through the process from anywhere in the world. Exact requirements and documentation are discussed confidentially after your application is reviewed.

This programme may not be the right fit if:

  • Your primary income comes from active employment or an operating business rather than independent financial assets
  • You are unwilling to travel to Italy on any occasion — the process requires three short in-person visits for biometrics and document collection
  • Your personal or legal background presents significant complications that would be difficult to document
  • You are not prepared to commit to a structured, multi-stage process with defined obligations on both sides

Not sure if you qualify? Simply submit your application. Our team will assess your profile personally and advise you — at no cost and with no obligation.

What Follows Acceptance

The Four Stages of
Our Engagement

Once your application is accepted and your engagement confirmed, our team manages the entire process end-to-end — from the first visa documents to the Italian passport in your hands.

Stage 01

Document Preparation

We provide you with a precise checklist, collect all required documents, arrange certified translations and notarisation, and compile your complete consulate-ready dossier.

Stage 02

Visa Application

We submit your complete application to the competent Italian Consulate in your country of residence and coordinate all appointments on your behalf.

Stage 03

Legal Residence in Italy

We accompany you to the Questura for your Permesso di Soggiorno, register your address, and obtain your Codice Fiscale, Tessera Sanitaria and identity card.

Stage 04

Citizenship Support

After the required period of legal continuous residence, we prepare and submit your citizenship application to the Italian Ministry of the Interior and support you throughout the review process.
