Italy requires certain U.S.-issued public documents to receive an apostille for citizenship or residency. Here are the primary Italian visa and citizenship programs we handle.

For highly qualified remote workers and remote employees. Requires proof of qualifying remote income, accommodation contracts in Italy, and a federally apostilled FBI background check.
Required for students enrolled in Italian universities, language academies, or study programs exceeding 90 days. Often requires academic diplomas and transcripts to be apostilled.
For foreign professionals who have obtained employment offers or self-employed permits in Italy (Nulla Osta). Requires certified diplomas, background checks, and contracts to be legalized.
For spouses of Italian citizens looking to obtain Italian citizenship. Requires an apostilled and translated FBI background check, state background check, and certified marriage records.
Registering an Italian branch (sede secondaria), establishing a subsidiary (S.r.l.), or executing commercial contracts requires apostilled state-issued Articles of Incorporation, Corporate Bylaws, Certificates of Good Standing, and Board Resolutions with sworn Italian translations.
Get your U.S. documents authenticated and officially prepared for use in Italy.
Identify the U.S. documents needed for your visa or residency (such as your FBI background check, birth or marriage certificates, or academic credentials). In Las Vegas? Get fingerprinted for your FBI Background Check at our Summerlin location. Results in as low as 30 minutes. If you already have your documents, proceed directly to Step 2.
Upload your FBI background check PDF or images of your vital records and academic documents to our secure online form. Our specialists will review them to ensure they meet strict Italy visa and immigration guidelines before you send us any physical documents.
Once verified, drop off your physical vital records, diplomas, or transcripts at our Las Vegas office, or mail your original certified copies to us using a tracked service (FedEx, UPS, or DHL). Note: FBI background checks can be submitted digitally if you have the official PDF; however, if you have a physical copy, it must be mailed or dropped off.
Once authenticated, we compile your apostilles along with certified Italian translations required for dual citizenship or visa applications. Pick up your completed package from our office, or have it shipped securely to your home or office via tracked FedEx or DHL (international shipping available).
Italian consulates are notoriously strict about names, dates, and spelling matching exactly. Here are the core U.S. documents requiring apostilles and certified Italian translations.
Documents must be apostilled by the Secretary of State where they were originally recorded, regardless of which Italian consulate has jurisdiction over your residence.
We offer concurrent processing across all 50 states, ensuring your entire genealogical document package meets the strict consulate filing parameters.
We authenticate vital, academic, and corporate records from all 50 states for legal use in Italy.
An apostille for Italy is an official certificate that verifies the authenticity of U.S. public documents (such as FBI background checks, birth certificates, and marriage certificates) for use in Italy. Since both the United States and Italy are members of the Hague Apostille Convention, a standard Hague apostille is the only legal certification required by Italy authorities.
For state-issued vital records (birth, marriage, or divorce certificates), the apostille must be issued by the Secretary of State where the document was originally recorded. For federal documents like FBI Background Checks, the apostille is issued by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C.
Because consulates and visa application centers are highly strict, your document packages must be completely free of errors. Most foreign consulates require a certified or sworn translation of all U.S. documents. Attempting to submit standard translations, un-notarized diplomas, or background checks older than 90 days will result in your visa application being rejected.

Expedited processing for documents issued by any U.S. state (e.g. birth, marriage, and death certificates, academic diplomas, transcripts, or notarized legal documents). We offer complete local and online notary services if your document requires it first.
