Italy is about to relax one of the main criteria for obtaining citizenship by naturalization. The Italian Constitutional Court has approved a referendum that aims to reduce the minimum length of residence required for foreigners to apply for Italian citizenship from 10 to 5 years. This change could benefit workers and students who are already legally resident in the country, making the naturalization process more accessible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Currently, citizens from outside the European Union need to prove a decade of legal residence to apply for Italian citizenship, while children of foreigners born in Italy can only apply at the age of 18. If the proposal is approved, in addition to reducing the waiting time, the children of new citizens will have an automatic right to Italian nationality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This reform could represent a major step forward for foreigners seeking greater stability in Italy, facilitating access to the job market and public services. In 2023, more than 85,000 people acquired Italian citizenship through residence, according to data from Italy's National Institute of Statistics (ISTAT). However, the process still requires candidates to meet strict criteria, such as proof of B1 level proficiency in Italian and presentation of complete and apostilled documentation, in accordance with the guidelines of the Salvini Decree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
