A process for urea production comprises a first process step in which ammonia (7) and carbon dioxide (6) are obtained, subjecting natural gas (1) to reforming treatments (12, 14), and a second step of urea (8a) production from such ammonia (7) and from carbon dioxide, through a formation of a solution comprising urea and ammonium carbamate in a urea synthesis reactor (20) and a subsequent decomposition of the ammonium carbamate and. urea recovery, the process comprises the steps of:—treating combustion smokes (5) comprising carbon dioxide with an aqueous solution (9a) comprising a part (7b) of such ammonia (7), obtaining an aqueous ammonium carbamate solution (9c);—supplying the solution (9c) thus obtained to the second process step.
