In the very first episode, Marcelo Rodrigues, CEO of Mark Publicidade and Partner at Lumus Studio, invites Fabrício Vieira, CEO of Cidadania For All, to discuss a trending topic: dual citizenship.
This conversation is especially relevant for those who want to learn more about the process of obtaining European citizenship, the challenges involved, and how this achievement can positively impact the future.
Throughout the episode, Fabrício Vieira shares his journey and how he entered the world of migration consultancy. With a career dedicated to helping people achieve the dream of obtaining dual citizenship, Fabrício explains that his motivation has always been to help others connect with their roots while opening doors to new opportunities around the world.
He mentions the challenges he faced throughout his career, from gaining a deep understanding of European immigration laws to building a reliable network of partners worldwide. Cidadania For All stands out for offering comprehensive service, going beyond the simple bureaucratic process to provide practical support throughout the entire procedure.
During the episode, Fabrício and Marcelo discuss the advantages of holding dual citizenship. One of the main benefits highlighted is easier access to the European job market.
With a robust economy and diverse opportunities across various fields, many Brazilians see European citizenship as a chance to expand their professional possibilities and improve their quality of life.
Additionally, international mobility is one of the greatest advantages for those with dual citizenship. With a European passport, it’s possible to travel, work, and study in several European Union countries without the need for visas or additional bureaucracy.
This opens doors not only to new cultural experiences but also to high-level educational opportunities that are often inaccessible to non-European citizens.
Another point addressed is the right of residence. Having European citizenship allows a person to live in any European Union country, which can be particularly attractive for those looking to retire or seek a higher quality of life in countries like Portugal, Italy, or Spain, known for their safety, healthcare systems, and quality of life.
Fabrício details the process for obtaining Portuguese and Italian citizenship, two of the most sought-after by Brazilians. He explains that, in the case of Portuguese citizenship, there are different routes to obtain it, such as through descent (grandchildren of Portuguese citizens) or naturalization based on residency in Portugal.
In the case of Italian citizenship, the process can be a bit longer and involves a detailed analysis of the family tree, as well as historical documentation such as birth, marriage, and death certificates of Italian ancestors. These processes can seem complicated for those unfamiliar with European laws, but Fabrício emphasizes that having specialized consultancy makes all the difference.
Cidadania For All assists its clients from the beginning, helping with document collection, translation, and even representing the case before the relevant authorities, whether in Portugal or Italy.
Marcelo asks Fabrício about the average time for these processes, and he explains that the timeline can vary significantly depending on the country and the client’s situation. However, with a qualified team and a strong network of partners, the process can be expedited, ensuring that the client receives citizenship in the shortest possible time.
