Getting an Italian ID Card and Passport - What You Need to Know

Italian citizenship, a status that does not expire, often leads individuals to pursue obtaining an Italian passport or ID card. These two forms of identification serve different purposes, with the passport enabling international travel and the ID card permitting travel within the European Union. The recent introduction of a plastic ID card in Italy has expanded its accessibility to non-citizens residing in the country. The process of acquiring these documents can vary, depending on whether one resides in Italy or abroad. A unique aspect of the Italian passport is its issuance under a woman's birth name, regardless of any name change due to marriage. The passport also features a biometric chip, enhancing its security. Its global mobility ranking is impressive, placing it within the top three passports worldwide. In this episode of the Italian Citizenship Podcast hosted by Italian attorney, Marco Permunian and dual citizen expat podcaster, Rafael Di Furia discuss the nuances of obtaining these identification documents, the differences between them, and the unique features that make the Italian passport a highly sought-after travel document.
