Genealogical research and document acquisition for Italian citizenship
Montanti Genealogy deals with genealogical research, acquisition of Italian historical certificates and the documentation necessary to start the process of obtaining Italian citizenship by descent (iure sanguinis ) and by marriage (iure matrimonii).
Thanks to a deep knowledge of civil and parish archives throughout Italy, Montanti Genealogy represents a reliable reference point for those living abroad who wish to reconstruct their family history and confidently embark on the path to acquiring Italian citizenship.
We reconstruct your family history in Italy with a rigorous and passionate approach, starting with names, dates, and places (even in the absence of reliable data) until we uncover yourdeepest roots.
Through municipal, parish, and state archives, we transform fragments of memory into a clear and documented family tree, designed for those who wish to learn more about their origins.
Acquisition of documentation for Italian citizenship
(iure sanguinis e iure matrimoni)
We take care of acquiring all the official documentation needed to apply for Italian citizenship in Italy , whether by descent (iure sanguinis) or marriage (iure matrimonii).
Birth, marriage, baptismal certificates, and other documents are accurately identified, requested, and verified , and then sent to the applicant, reducing time, errors, and bureaucratic complexity for those living abroad.
After obtaining Italian citizenship, we offer further ongoing support for all subsequent procedures: obtaining certificates from the municipalities where your citizenship was registered, and registering or changing your AIRE.
This service is designed to ensure your new Italian citizenship status is fully recognized and easily manageable, even remotel.
We help find relatives still living in Italy, connecting the past to the present.
Through targeted registry and genealogical research, we transform a surname or country of origin into real contacts , creating opportunities for meeting and rediscovering family ties often lost over time.
Organizing trips to Italy in search of one’s origins
We design tailor-made trips for those who wish to explore Italy not as tourists, but as descendants.
From visits to family ancestry to encounters with archives, municipalities, and relatives, each experience is designed to offer an authentic connection with one’s roots, combining emotion, culture, and memory.

I highly recommend Montanti services! Nino was able to get my grandparents birth registry from a comune that was known to be difficult - it took less than 2 months from start to finish. Nino was professional, courtesy and prompt email replies.

Montanti Genealogy are nothing short of extraordinary. I had been struggling for several months without success to obtain several documents out of Italy. After reaching out to Nino and his team, they quickly stepped in and helped me secure the records I had been unable to obtain on my own.
They leveraged their expertise, clearly understood the situation, and handled everything efficiently. Throughout the entire process, they were knowledgeable, professional, and extremely responsive. They kept me up to date at every step and made what had been a frustrating experience feel seamless.
I couldn’t give a higher recommendation. 10/10 - I would strongly recommend Nino & his team to anyone considering their services.

We could not have proceeded our Italian dual citizenship desire without the efforts of Nino Montanti in securing the documents requested by the Italian government, The documents consisted of historical information for my grandparents: From the Comune of Domegge di Cadore:
Copia Integrale birth record of VIELMO NICOLETTA
From the church of Molina:
Baptismal certificate of SAVERIO SILVESTRI DEMARCHI
Thanks very much Nino!

Giovanni, I cannot express how happy you have made me. I am sitting here crying tears of joy as I read your message. You are wonderful - you keep your promises, work hard and follow up quickly. I feel as though I am the only person you are doing research for, while I know that is not true. Grazie, grazie, grazie!

Thank you very much for your interest in my family heritage. I cannot express how happy I am to receive the map of Petralia Sottana. You have truly shown your personal desire to help people search their heritage in any way you possibly can.

I highly recommend the services of Giovanni Montanti for finding relatives in Italy. Mr. Montanti was referred to me from a fellow classmate in my italian class. Based on the foregoing, I can only say that Giovanni Montanti provides first class service.
Jeannette
Giovanni - You are the BEST!!! As I was reading your email, I felt like you were physic - you know - a person that senses or knows things about other people without ever being told.
Rosa
Thank you for sending the reference letters. It was not necessary to send the references as I already know from my past dealings with you - that you are the best in your field. I want you to know your services have always been most appreciated. You are a very professional and caring person.
Angela
I wanted to thank you for locating my relatives in Italy. We were so excited when you e-mailed me with the news that you had located them and they wanted to meet us. I had tried to find them myself for two years. Meeting our family and spending time with them was the highlight of our trip!
Margaret
Giovanni, Thank you so very much for doing that, and for everything that you have done to reunite me with my family in Sicily. Thank you for the constant updates you sent me and the insight into genuine Sicilian warmth, compassion and friendship.

My paternal grandfather immigrated to America in the early 1900s when he was young and single. Ninety years later, I decided it was time for his American family to learn about his Italian family, so a trusted friend in Sicily recommended Giovanni Montanti to me. I immediately set Giovanni in motion.
Frank
I highly recommend the services of Giovanni Montanti. I had planned a trip to Cefalu Sicily, my father's birthplace and decided to do some research to see if I had any relatives still there.My father was an only child and I knew very little about my grandmothers family.
Suzanne
I just could not even type enough about HOW much Giovanni helped me. He’s worth every dollar and he gives the best Pricing around for genealogy help. He’s a genuine and kind person too who obviously loves his job and helping people. Thank you Giovanni, and I look forward to Continued work and research with you!
Rebecca
Hello Giovanni ! The visit was truly wonderful! They we all very warm and welcoming. It was a very emotional experience for me. Amazing, really. A time that I will always treasure. Thank you for your work in finding them.
Poe
Thank you so much for checking about our visit and for all you did to arrange it. The visit was wonderful beyond my wildest expectations. There were about 20 family members from the Sicilian family there. They fed us wonderful food, walked around Floresta with us and also gave us gifts. It was an amazing experience and I hope to keep in contact with many of them.
Mary
I used Giovanni Montanti for a record from Naples after My Italian Family left me hanging & requested more money. He was courteous & he obtained my grandfather’s birth record very quickly.
Kathy
We are so happy & appreciative for your prompt & professional services. Massarosa was not very responsive to our requests in the past 2 years & we had given up hope.
Joni
I had been told this process usually takes quite a bit of time but with Giovanni's help he managed to persuade my commune to complete this in a very timely manner whilst it was the summer holiday period, short staffed and in the run up to the elections all for a very reasonable price.
Jamie
I saw this morning that they are officially registered in AIRE… tears of joy on this very special journey. Thank you, Giovanni, from my family to you. Your help has been very instrumental and I am very thankful.
Jamie
I can’t thank you enough! It was wonderful to meet my relatives. I wish I could have stayed longer. I am so happy I could cry! We will now all keep in touch! Grazie Mille!
Alexandra
Thank you so much for all of your attention and help communicating with the commune and guiding us on follow up items with the consulate. We truly could not have accomplished this without your help. I cannot overstate how thankful we are to you! We will of course, reach out if we ever need anything in the future
