Next, you may ask the local Italian consulate for an Emergency Travel Document (ETD) valid solely for your return trip to Italy, within the foreign country where you reside or, in exceptional cases, for a different destination.Further information see:

The application may be filed with the competent judge at the ordinary court of the place where the child has his or her habitual residence or, if the child is resident abroad, at the court in whose district his or her municipality of A.I.R.E. registration is located.
