Obtaining the correct Italian civil certificates is a mandatory step in the Italian citizenship by descent application process.
If you need birth, marriage, or death certificates issued in Gironico, Como province, Lombardia, the required documentation must be requested from the local Civil Registry Office (Ufficio di Stato Civile).
Applicants often use the word “records” when referring to Italian documents.
However, for citizenship purposes, ONLY official certificates are required. These certificates are issued today by the Civil Registry Office based on the original civil records preserved in municipal archives.
