Standing in line at the consulate doesn't erase your right to citizenship.

The Italian Supreme Court has confirmed that a consular blockade is legal grounds for legal action.

• Is the process stalled or poorly managed?
• Maternal lineage?
• Incomplete documentation?

See if there is still a solution.

The number represents continuous growth since 2017, thanks to the increase in arrivals of foreigners (+1,8%) and Italians (+2,8%).

In total, more than 69 million tourists spent just one day in the region. At least 70% of citizens are foreigners, with 15,6 million being German, 3,8 million Austrian and 2,6 million English. The presence of Americans increased by 14,1%, that of Chinese, 5,2%, and Russians, 7,9%.

Regarding the most visited cities, Venice remains at the top of the list, followed by Vicenza, Verona and Treviso. As a measure to try to reduce the flow of tourists, the Venice City Council approved the creation of a landing fee for tourists, in addition to the creation of an appointment system to enter the city in 2022.
