Nulla Osta

The Nullsa Osta or the Italian no impediment document is a general term referring to a necessary civil document which all foreign citizens (non Italians) must provide prior to marrying in Italy.

In some cases, the Nulla Osta for a wedding Italy can be obtained by us via mail, thus avoiding any last minute appointments at the consulates (British, Irish, Canadians and Australians for example).

US citizens must ask for their Nulla Osta in person at the United States consulates in Italy. We will provide all the necessary assistance for you for this.

A Nulla Osta does not require more than one morning in most cases and you must present yourselves with our coordinator at the Consulate or Embassy with your passport and any other relative documents already prepared previously in the country of your origin.

The consulate will then issue you a marriage Nulla Osta which is a certificate granting permission for you to marry in Italy.

We strongly recommend that this procedure be completed no later than 3 working days prior to the wedding.

In some cases, exceptions can be made, but please check with your personal wedding coordinator to find out the options.
