Belong Italy

Italian citizenship takes years. Belong Italy keeps the count honest, from today to the day you can apply and through the wait after. Answer a few questions and Belong Italy shows your real distance: which route applies, what you have met and what still stands between you and the decision. In English and Italian, switchable any time. YOUR ROUTE, CLEARLY Ten years as the general rule, four for EU citizens, three if born in Italy, two on Italian descent since Law 74/2025, five for refugees and stateless people and two after marriage Every requirement explained: legal and continuous residence, Italian at B1, sufficient income and a clean record, each sourced from Law 91/1992, Law 74/2025 and the Ministero dell'Interno. Rules as of October 2026 STAGE ONE: THE LONG-TERM PERMIT After 5 years, the permesso UE per soggiornanti di lungo periodo ends the renewals and exempts you from the B1 for citizenship. The Path tab shows its requirements, with your years counted Add the day your permit ends: a countdown and a reminder nine weeks ahead A SECOND PERSON ON THE SAME IPHONE Add your partner, or another adult, and they get their own count: route, years, trips. A trip you took together is logged once and counted for both. Send the app to a friend from the You tab AFTER YOU APPLY Tell the app the day you filed and it follows the wait: days since filing against the 24 months the law gives the Ministero dell'Interno, 36 at most, the ALI portal one tap away PRACTISE THE EXAM YOU ACTUALLY SIT Italy has no citizenship test. It has a language exam and this app drills the half you can drill: 450 questions for the CILS B1 Cittadinanza reading and structures paper, five a day, a mistakes deck and progress The other three abilità are listed too, greyed out, so you see the whole exam No mock, deliberately: Siena publishes no question count, so this app will not invent a test shape. The questions are ours, in Italian with an English study line The CILS sittings and the day registration closes, read from Siena on a stated day. Five guides to read offline THE PASSPORT AT THE END The real cover, with validity, fee, where to apply and dual citizenship, checked with the authority. Add your name and photo. A line says the earliest you could apply TRACK WHAT MATTERS Log trips abroad, or plan one before you book. Italian law fixes no day count, so a stay over six months is flagged as a risk to your anagrafe registration, not turned into a deduction Try a What if scenario and see your finish line move. Real rules on a copy, nothing saved What's coming lists the dates ahead: residence time completing, a trip ending, a permit ending, a sitting to register for. Optional alerts, a handful ON YOUR HOME SCREEN Four widgets: residence time so far, longest stay abroad, today's five and the newest story from The Local YOUR DOCUMENTS, ON YOUR IPHONE Attach the evidence for each requirement, with an expiry date. Documents stay on this iPhone, encrypted while it is locked and out of your backup. Belong Italy never sees them STAY INFORMED News from The Local Italy inside the app, with optional alerts. The stories are The Local's, some need their subscription WHAT YOU CONTROL, WHAT YOU DON'T The years, the certificate and the record are yours. The queue is not. Italy allows dual citizenship and asks nobody to renounce HONEST BY DESIGN No fake finish dates. Belong Italy tells you what is in your hands, what is not and what the next step is.
