Eligibility requirements (2026)

Access to Italian citizenship is governed by precise laws, and several paths can lead to it. Understanding these requirements is the first crucial step in your journey. The main distinction is between naturalization by residency and acquisition through marriage, or by descent, although the latter path typically does not require a specific citizenship test.

This exam is designed to assess not only your proficiency in the Italian language at the B1 level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR), but also your knowledge of the civic, cultural, and historical aspects of Italy. It is a crucial step that demonstrates your integration and commitment to the nation.
