Your Trusted European Citizenship Experts
We've helped over 500 Americans reconnect with their European heritage and gain dual citizenship. Our mission is to make the complex process simple, transparent, and successful.
Our Story
Founded in 2021 by a team of immigration attorneys and genealogy researchers, Citizens by Descent was born from the frustration of navigating Europe's complex citizenship by descent programs.
After helping friends and family claim their own European citizenships, we realized there was a massive need for expert guidance in this space. Millions of Americans are eligible for European citizenship but don't know where to start.
Today, we're the leading citizenship by descent service in North America, with a 92% success rate and thousands of satisfied dual citizens living their European dreams.
