About the Honorary Consulate
About the Dutch Honorary Consulate in Naples
The Dutch Honorary Consulate in Naples forms part of the Netherlands‘ diplomatic and honorary consular network in Italy.
Giuliana Alvino is the honorary consul officially listed by the Dutch government.
Honorary consuls provide local representation in areas where the Netherlands does not maintain a resident career embassy or consulate general.
Their role can include maintaining relationships with local businesses, public authorities and institutions, promoting international contacts and supporting Dutch citizens in appropriate circumstances.
The Naples representation serves three regions of southern Italy: Campania, Calabria and Molise.
Together, these regions have international connections involving shipping, tourism, agriculture, manufacturing, research, education and trade.
Naples is particularly important for maritime and commercial activity. Its port serves ferries, passenger vessels, cruise ships and international shipping.
The Netherlands has a substantial maritime and logistics sector, making shipping and transport connections a relevant part of wider Dutch-Italian relations.
An honorary consul’s duties are different from those of a career ambassador or consul general.
For formal consular services such as passports, identity cards, visas and certificates of residence, the Dutch government directs applicants to the embassy or NetherlandsWorldwide.
Consular Services
Dutch Passport, Identity Card and Consular Services in Naples
The Dutch Honorary Consulate in Naples does not process routine Dutch passport, identity card or visa applications.
Dutch citizens requiring formal documents should use the appropriate NetherlandsWorldwide application procedure.
Dutch Passports and Identity Cards
Eligible Dutch citizens who live in Italy can apply at the Embassy of the Netherlands in Rome by appointment. Participating Dutch border municipalities are another application option.
Emergency Travel Assistance
If a Dutch passport or identity card is lost or stolen and urgent travel is necessary, the Dutch Embassy in Rome assesses the situation and determines whether an emergency travel document is required.
Visas and Official Certificates
Schengen visa applications, nationality matters, certificates of residence and other formal consular documents follow separate procedures. Check NetherlandsWorldwide for the correct service.
Important: an appointment with the honorary consul in Naples is not a regular passport or identity card application appointment. Formal applications must be made through authorised Dutch government channels.
Applying for a Dutch Passport or Identity Card in Italy
Dutch citizens living in Naples, Campania, Calabria or Molise should follow the NetherlandsWorldwide application guide for Italy.
Start by creating a personalised document checklist for each applicant, including children.
The checklist identifies the forms and original supporting documents required for the individual’s situation.
Proof of Legal Residence in Italy
Applicants must provide acceptable evidence of legal residence in Italy.
Depending on the applicant’s circumstances, this may include an Italian identity card or a qualifying residence certificate identifying Dutch nationality.
Applicants who also hold Italian nationality may be able to use a valid Italian passport or identity card, as specified by NetherlandsWorldwide.
For a child’s first Dutch passport or identity card, the Italy application guide explains when a birth certificate can serve as proof of residence.
Italian Birth and Marriage Certificates
Italian birth and marriage certificates do not need legalisation for the Dutch passport and identity card application procedure described by NetherlandsWorldwide.
Translation requirements may still apply.
For Italian-language civil-status records, applicants can request a multilingual extract or a qualifying multilingual standard form from the appropriate Italian authority.
If neither is available, a sworn translation may be required.
Booking a Passport Appointment in Rome
When the documents identified in your checklist are ready, you can book an appointment at the Embassy of the Netherlands in Rome.
Separate appointments are required when applying for both a passport and an identity card.
All applicants must appear in person, including children.
Bring the completed and signed application form, printed personal checklist and all required original documents.
Additional parental or guardian consent documents may be required for applications involving minors.
Dutch Passport and ID Card Applications in Italy

The embassy also determines where and when the applicant can attend an appointment.
Applicants must attend the authorised appointment in person.
Can the Honorary Consulate Assist with a Laissez-Passer?
In certain circumstances, Italian honorary consulates may assist with a laissez-passer after the Dutch Embassy in Rome has expressly approved the arrangement.
The honorary consul cannot independently decide which emergency travel document should be issued.
Do not travel to the honorary consulate expecting an emergency document without first receiving official instructions.
