ITALIAN PASSPORT PATHWAY
A DIY Membership to Help You Achieve Italian Citizenship Without Breaking the Bank.
What Is the Italian Passport Pathway?

With this membership, you’ll have access to DIY tools, discounted consultations, and the latest updates on Italian citizenship—everything you need to confidently move forward on your journey.

Why Choose the Italian Passport Pathway?
Pursuing Italian citizenship through descent can feel overwhelming, especially with the high costs of full-service providers—often $12,000 or more for a single applicant. At BecomeItaliani, we offer one of the most affordable full-service packages in the industry, but we also know that not everyone has the budget or even needs full-service assistance.
That’s why we created the Italian Passport Pathway, a membership designed for those ready to dedicate time and effort but still want professional support along the way. This membership bridges the gap between going it alone and spending thousands of dollars, giving you access to DIY tools, discounted consultations, and first-access updates on Italian citizenship laws and processes—all at an affordable monthly price.
We believe securing your Italian citizenship is a marathon, not a sprint. Too often, people start the process only to let years pass without progress due to a lack of guidance or motivation. The Italian Passport Pathway solves this by providing a structured and budget-friendly way to stay on track, empowering you to confidently achieve your Italian passport goals.
What’s Included?
Starting at just $9.95 per month, your membership provides the tools, guidance, and expert support you need to DIY your Italian citizenship application with confidence.
