How we help
Itinerary
We begin by showing you the lay of the land, and if you are eligible to obtain the burgundy passport, we discuss the path forward. Based on your background and lineage, we draw up milestones, timelines, costs, and everything in between.
Citizenship Service
We partner with you to gather all the documents required for your application, whether from the United States, Italy or other countries, and make sure they are properly legalized and translated. We prepare you for the application with the Italian authorities, and any interviews.
Beyond the Passport
With Italian citizenship, you have access to opportunities throughout the European Union. We help you figure out how to work, own property and retire in the continent, whether that’s for right now or many years down the line.
What Our Clients Say.
-
After spending decades thinking whether I can claim Italian citizenship, Burgundy Passport clarified everything for me in a couple of days. They are quick, efficient and precise.
E. G., Connecticut
-
My application was time sensitive and quite complex, with documents to be collected from a number of countries--the process took less than a year start to finish and I would have never done it myself. The whole team was kind, communicated clearly and laser focused.
Jane Y., New York
-
Our case included lawyers working from Italy. I tried that myself before, and it was a terrible experience. Michael made it all effortless and easy.

Routes to the Burgundy Passport
Through Lineage
