Support with Birth Registration at the Italian Consulate

28 Nov Support with Birth Registration at the Italian Consulate

If you are an Italian citizen residing abroad and have recently welcomed a new member to your family, one of the essential steps to take is to register the birth at the competent Italian Consulate. This is a crucial step to ensure your child’s recognition of Italian citizenship and to guarantee all the rights associated with it. However, consular procedures can be complex and daunting, especially for those far from Italy or unfamiliar with the local bureaucracy. This is why we have introduced a new service dedicated to assisting with birth registration at the Consulate.

Why is Registration Important?

Registering your child’s birth at the Italian Consulate automatically transfers Italian citizenship to them, securing their right to access Italian public services, such as education and healthcare, as well as the possibility to live and work in Italy and other EU countries. Furthermore, this step is essential for obtaining an Italian passport and facilitating any future travel or relocation.

What Documents Are Needed for Registration?

The birth registration process at the Consulate requires submitting several documents, which may vary slightly depending on the country of residence, but generally include:

• A full birth certificate for the child, issued by the local authority.
• A copy of the identity documents of both parents, or of one parent if the other has a different citizenship.
• Marriage certificate (if applicable) or other documentation proving the relationship between the parents.
• Birth transcription request form, available at the Consulate or downloadable from the official website.

Any document issued by a foreign country may need to be legalised or accompanied by a sworn translation, depending on the specific requirements of the Consulate in question.

How Does Our Support Service Work?

Our new support service for birth registration at the Consulate is designed to simplify this process, offering full assistance from start to finish. We handle:

• Initial consultation to explain the entire process and confirm which documents are necessary in your specific case.
• Document preparation: ensuring each document is correct, translated (if needed), legalised, and ready for submission.
• Direct interaction with the Consulate: liaising directly with the Italian Consulate, ensuring that all documentation is properly submitted and that response times are closely monitored.
