Apostille for Italy
Get your US documents prepared for Italian dual citizenship, consulate review, and international use.
Applying for Italian Dual Citizenship?
If you are pursuing Italian dual citizenship by descent (Jure Sanguinis), getting married in Italy, or applying for a visa, your US vital records will usually require an Apostille to be accepted by the consulate or Italian municipality.
Italy is a member of the 1961 Hague Apostille Convention. This means your US documents only need the standardized Apostille certificate—no further embassy legalization is required. We handle this process from start to finish.
Documents Commonly Apostilled for Italy:
- Birth Certificates (for yourself and your ancestors)
- Marriage Certificates
- Death Certificates
- Divorce Decrees
- FBI Background Checks (Requires US Dept. of State Apostille)
Note: Italian consulates often require these documents to be translated into Italian. We provide certified translation support as well.
Working through a consulate checklist? Our Italian dual citizenship apostille guide explains how marriage certificates, vital records, apostilles, and translations fit together. You can also request certified translation or local apostille services in Jacksonville.
