Pricing Questions
Frequently asked pricing questions
The average case cost range reflects what most clients pay for a standard case of that type — typically one or two generations of documentation with no major complications. Cases with additional family members, harder-to-find records, or name discrepancies requiring amendments may cost more. Every engagement starts with a free eligibility check where we give you a precise quote for your specific situation.
Our service fees cover our professional work: lineage research, document procurement, translation, preparation, and legal representation. Government filing fees (€600 per applicant), apostille fees, and official archive fees are billed separately as they are paid to third parties on your behalf. We provide a full breakdown at consultation.
If you already have some of the required documents, that can reduce procurement work and may lower your final cost. Bring everything you have to your consultation and we'll let you know exactly what's still needed and how it affects your quote.
Yes. We typically structure payments in milestones tied to key stages of the process. Payment structure is confirmed at the time of engagement. Contact us at team@citizenshipitalia.com to discuss your situation.
The initial eligibility review is free. If we determine you're not eligible, there's no charge. We only move forward with paid engagements when we believe you have a strong case. We'd rather tell you honestly upfront than charge you for a process that won't succeed.
