An Italian comune will play an important role during the process of getting Italian citizenship by descent. Knowing what a comune is in Italy can be very helpful since the word ‘commune’ can have various meanings. Understanding what the Italian comuni offer can be quite important not only as someone applying for dual citizenship, but also for when the process is over and you have recognition of Italian dual citizenship by descent (jure sanguinis). In this episode of the Italian Citizenship Podcast, hosts Marco Permunian, an Italian attorney, along with video podcaster and dual-citizen expat, Rafael Di Furia have a discussion about the Italian municipal offices / town halls, what they are, what they offer and what they do.
