La riforma del MMXXV
Law 74/2025 changed everything. Here's what you need to know.
· MMXXV ·
What no longer works
Citizenship through great-grandparents is no longer automatic. The new law requires a more direct link: parent or grandparent born in Italy.
What's still possible
If your parent or grandparent was born in Italy, you can still claim Italian citizenship by jure sanguinis — under specific conditions.
The new pathway opened in 2025
Descendants who no longer qualify by blood can now naturalize after just 2 years of residence in Italy, instead of the previous 10.
