Obtaining Italian citizenship may be closer for Brazilians who wish to gain this right. This will be possible if the newly created Brazil-Italy Parliamentary Front manages to advance in its mission to expedite the citizenship application process.
The front, launched at the Italian embassy in Brasília, this Tuesday (06) promises to work in search of solutions that make the process faster and more efficient, as it is currently known to be time-consuming.
The vice-president of the front, deputy Eros Biondini (PL)He emphasizes that improving the organization of the bureaucracy is fundamental to accelerating the acquisition of dual citizenship. He highlights the example of Argentina, where a bilateral agreement allows the use of digital certificates, demonstrating how improvements in bureaucracy can facilitate the recognition of Italian citizenship.
“We know that in Argentina there are fewer Italian descendants than in Brazil, but more Italian citizens than from Brazil. Italian citizens formally recognized, because they managed to better organize this bureaucracy”, said Biondini.
The bilateral agreement between Italy and Argentina, which simplified and expedited the process of recognizing Italian citizenship for Argentinians, was the result of political negotiations between the two countries. Since 2019, Italy has accepted digital certificates presented by Argentines, making the recognition of dual citizenship faster and more efficient for them.
This advance in the organization of bureaucracy served as inspiration for the Brazil-Italy Parliamentary Frontwhich seeks to implement similar solutions to facilitate the process of obtaining Italian citizenship for Brazilians. Improving the bureaucracy, based on the agreement signed with Argentina, has the potential to significantly reduce waiting times and make the right to Italian citizenship more accessible to Brazilians.
