Italian citizenship is not a <em>Black Friday</em> deal, nor for shopping in Miami, says minister

Público12 September 2026 at 18:06

Italian Minister Antonio Tajani was passing through Brazil and made statements about Italian citizenship. He stated that Italian citizenship "is serious business" and should not be treated trivially or commercially.

Tajani specifically criticized comparisons to Black Friday, saying that citizenship is not on sale in promotions like that. He made clear that the process of obtaining citizenship should not be viewed as a commercial transaction.

In addition, the minister emphasized that Italian citizenship is not intended to allow vacation trips or shopping in Miami, warning against the misuse of Italian citizen status.

Tajani's statements occur in a context of high demand for Italian citizenship in Brazil, where millions of descendants seek to regularize their right to a European passport.

Why this matters

The statement directly interests Brazilians seeking Italian citizenship, as it reinforces that the process remains serious and regulated. This is a diplomatic stance that occurs amid growing interest from descendants of Italians in Brazil in regularizing their citizenship.
