Judicial petition path
Judicial Petition Path
How cases have been interpreted to date:
For many years, Italian authorities favored an interpretation based on Article 7:
• Children born abroad to Italian parents were considered Italian citizens from birth
• This status was not automatically lost if their parent later naturalized
• Applications were approved based on this interpretation
New Guidelines: "Circolare" No. 43347
The Ministerial Circular of October 3, 2024, further supports this interpretation, advising authorities to reject applications where the ancestor naturalized while their child was still a minor. These new directives prioritize Article 12 over the previously favored Article 7, impacting many ongoing and future citizenship applications.
• If an ancestor was naturalized while their child was a minor, it would disrupt citizenship transmission to future generations
• These guidelines apply only to applications filed through Italian consulates or municipalities
• They do not influence court rulings, as the judicial system operates independently
