Italian Citizenship by Descent: How We Won in Court Under the New Law (2026)

Italian Citizenship by Descent: How We Won in Court Under the New Law (June 2026). Filed AFTER Italy's new citizenship law — and WON in court. In this video we break down a real Italian citizenship by descent (jure sanguinis) case our firm won at the Tribunale di Napoli in June 2026: a case registered after Law 74/2025 came into force, built on the appointment paralysis at the Italian Consulate in New York. For years, applicants tied to the New York consulate have been unable to even book an appointment to have their Italian citizenship recognized. We brought this "consular paralysis" before an Italian tribunal — and obtained recognition of Italian citizenship, even under the new legal framework. __ 📌 Disclaimer ❗️ This video provides general informational content and is not legal advice.

The Case: Winning in Court After the 2025 Law A jure sanguinis case filed after the new Italian citizenship law (Law 74/2025, the so-called Tajani Decree) — and decided in favor of our clients by the Tribunale di Napoli in June 2026. The Problem: no appointments available at the Consulate of New York, for years. Our Strategy: bringing the consular paralysis before an Italian court instead of waiting indefinitely. The Result: judicial recognition of Italian citizenship by descent. 2. This Is Not an Isolated Case A growing number of Italian tribunals are currently ruling in favor of applicants in similar situations. But outcomes depend heavily on your specific family line, your documents, the consulate involved, and the timing of your application. That's why a case-by-case strategy is essential — there is no one-size-fits-all path. 3. Does This Apply to You? 👉 If your family line should be processed by an Italian consulate, but you cannot get an appointment, your case may qualify for the judicial route.
