Usually a passport, birth and marriage certificates, archival records of ancestors, notarized translations, and proof of financial solvency are required. Our team helps collect missing documents and submit archival requests.

Yes, children obtain citizenship along with their parents. In some countries they are included automatically; in others a separate application is needed, but the procedure remains as simple as possible.

Most stages can be completed remotely. However, final procedures — submitting biometric data or taking the oath — require a short visit to the EU country to complete the application.

In most cases, no. The EU allows dual citizenship. Bulgaria, Romania, Portugal, France, Spain, and Slovenia allow you to keep both passports. Germany and Austria may require renunciation, but preferential exceptions are possible.

Yes, EU citizenship gives you the right to freely start and run a business in any EU country. You can take advantage of tax breaks and participate in credit programs available only to citizens.

Exceptional service from start to finish. The team collected all archival documents — some from records three generations back — without me travelling anywhere. I now have a Slovenian passport and can live and work freely across the EU.
