Valid for boarding in the ports of the kingdom. The holder of this passport has been granted a sheet of allowed embarkment issued by the Company "(xxx) Sabaudo" with departure from Naples on Jul 3rd, 1925, with visa of the Royal Inspectorate for Emigration.

I think you can understand it all. If I used some inexact words, please tell me, so that I can improve (for instance, I have some doubts about "boarding" and "build").

All is clear. "Build" and "boarding" are perfect as you have used them. Your translation above is literally accurate, but if you're looking for more precise words, I would change the above in red.

OK, thanks!
I had missed "Lo" in Maria's surname.
As to the rest, the former seems to end with "lei", and the latter seems to start with "ci".
Yet, though they seem good guesses, I can't read "cerulei" and "cicatrice", as much I can strain my imagination.

I guess I am imaginative. The handwriting is atrocious and perhaps I am reading something that is not there.

Thanks so much! could "(xxx) Sabaudo" be Lloyd Sabaudo?

Just chiming in here. I am reading "the left eye" ?

????????????????????????????????
"Cic(atrice) occhiaia sinistra"

[AngelaGrace56]

????????????????????????????????
"Cic(atrice) occhiaia sinistra"

Exactly what I read, except I wasn't completely sure about the abbreviation "Cic". I was thinking something else. Why so many question marks?

It might be, if the writing went beyond the vertical line.

????????????????????????????????
"Cic(atrice) occhiaia sinistra"

Yes, it seems correct!

[sbiondo257]

His eye DOES seem to have a scar!!!
