A Civil Status Certificate refers to the sum of acts and events concerning the life of a citizen: birth, marriage, death, divorce and citizenship, registration of which falls within the remit of the Office of Civil Status, whose function is carried out in Italy by municipal offices, and abroad by consular offices.
