Kindly note that the minor child/infant born of a parent (one or both) currently in possession of Italian citizenship is an Italian citizen. Therefore, the parent must not submit an application for recognition of Italian citizenship in favor of the minor/infant but will only have to send the request for registration of vital records (birth) to this Consulate General, as indicated here.
