Programs for obtaining citizenship through repatriation, investment, and naturalization. The optimal choice without mandatory residence — duplicate this template per country.

EU citizenship opens the door to living, working, and traveling without restrictions.


EU citizenship can be obtained through various programs — it all depends on your situation and the country you choose. Each program has its own conditions, but the general principle is the same: transparent processing, official documents, and the opportunity to become a full citizen of the European Union.

This requirement depends on the country and the program you choose. Repatriation programs, such as those in Bulgaria, Romania, or Slovenia, do not require an exam. However, naturalization programs, such as those in Portugal, Germany, or France, require official language proficiency testing.
If the package of documents is correctly prepared and confirms the legal basis — by origin, investment, or naturalization — the probability of approval exceeds 90%. We carefully check and prepare all materials in advance to eliminate errors.
Usually a passport, birth and marriage certificates, archival records of ancestors, notarized translations, and proof of financial solvency are required. Our team helps collect missing documents and submit archival requests.
Yes, children obtain citizenship along with their parents. In some countries they are included automatically; in others a separate application is needed, but the procedure remains as simple as possible.
Most stages can be completed remotely. However, final procedures — submitting biometric data or taking the oath — require a short visit to the EU country to complete the application.
In most cases, no. The EU allows dual citizenship. Bulgaria, Romania, Portugal, France, Spain, and Slovenia allow you to keep both passports. Germany and Austria may require renunciation, but preferential exceptions are possible.
Yes, EU citizenship gives you the right to freely start and run a business in any EU country. You can take advantage of tax breaks and participate in credit programs available only to citizens.
The cost depends on the country and program. Repatriation requires minimal government fees. Investment programs start from €150,000. Naturalization is less expensive but requires residence for a certain period.
Real stories from people who trusted us with one of the most important decisions of their lives.
"I had been putting off getting Romanian citizenship for years because I didn't know where to start. GetLegalStatus made the whole process clear from day one. My personal lawyer guided me through every step and we completed everything in 14 months."
"Exceptional service from start to finish. The team collected all archival documents — some from records three generations back — without me travelling anywhere. I now have a Slovenian passport and can live and work freely across the EU."
"GetLegalStatus operates transparently — signed contract, fixed fees, and regular status updates. My Bulgarian citizenship came through in just over a year. The entire family got it together, children included."
"My assigned lawyer was knowledgeable, patient, and responsive to every question I had. The language test preparation advice alone was worth everything. Highly recommend to anyone considering this path."
"The team found archival records I didn't even know existed. The whole process was remote — I only flew to Italy for the final registration. Now my children have EU passports too. Best investment we ever made."
"I always knew exactly what stage we were at, what documents were pending, and what came next. No surprises. The fixed price meant no hidden fees. My Spanish citizenship arrived exactly within the estimated timeline."
