Can the Tajani 2025 Emergency Decree Be Stopped? How to Challenge This Threat to Italian Citizenship

from The Italian Citizenship Podcast · host Italian Citizenship Assistance

The Tajani Emergency Law Decree, introduced by Minister of Foreign Affairs Antonio Tajani, has stirred up a lot of uncertainty for people pursuing Italian citizenship by descent. The way it was pushed through—with no warning and immediate effect—left many applicants stuck, especially those already facing long delays at Italian consulates. There’s been a lot of talk about whether this Tanjani decree is even constitutional, and how it affects people who’ve spent years preparing their cases. Another point of attention is the minor issue, which under the new rules changes how and when children of Italian citizens can qualify for citizenship, raising questions for families already living in or planning to move to Italy. While some are hoping for changes through Parliament or even a future referendum, others are turning to legal experts and advocacy groups to figure out the next steps.For help with the Italian citizenship process and more information about Italian Citizenship Assistance visit ICA's website:https://ItalianCitizenshipAssistance.comTo contact Italian Attorney Marco Permunian and his team of dual-citizenship experts and attorneys you can use the contact form on the Italian Citizenship Assistance website:https://italiancitizenshipassistance.com/contact/To see more from Rafael Di Furia about life in Italy and life as a dual-citizen expat check out his YouTube channel and website:Http://YouTube.com/RafaelDiFuriaHttp://RafaelDiFuria.com#italiancitizenship #italiandualcitizenship #dualcitizenshipTopics & Timestamps:0:00 – Intro & Opening Thoughts0:58 - How is ICA handling the current situation?2:52 - The legality of the decree7:07 - Impact of the constitutional court hearing in June8:43 - How the decree will be applied by judges in court12:29 - The matter of discrimination caused by the decree14:36 - What are ways the decree can be challenged?16:54 - What can Italian citizens do to amend the law?18:26 - What are the bills proposed along with the decree?20:47 - A message from Marco & Outro
