Italian Tax Code
Rosalie Checca
Italian telephone numbers are defined by an open telephone numbering plan that assigns subscriber telephone numbers of six to eleven digits. In addition, other short codes are used for special services. The plan is organized by types of services,[1] indicated by the first digit. Geographic landline numbers start with the digit 0, while mobile telephone numbers start with 3. Four types of emergency services use three-digit telephone numbers in the group 11X, including 112 for the Carabinieri.[2] Other initial digits denote other services, such as toll-free numbers.
The dialing procedures for callers mandate that the full telephone number is always dialed, including the area code, which is called prefix (prefisso in Italian). Since 1998, the leading 0 of landline numbers has to be included also when calling from abroad, in contrast with the practice in many other countries.
In the past it was possible to omit the prefix when calling from a landline to another landline in the same area. The digit "0" was the trunk code and it had to be removed when calling from abroad.[13]
The Italian enclave San Marino has its own country code 378, but landline numbers can be reached using the Italian country code as well: the prefix "0549" is assigned to San Marino. Dialing either "+378 xxxxxx" or "+39 0549 xxxxxx" will reach the same number. Mobile phone customers are sometimes assigned Italian phone numbers.
The country code 379 is assigned to Vatican City, but it is not used: telephone numbers in Vatican City are integrated into the Italian numbering plan. Vatican landline telephone numbers are in the form "+39 06 698xxxxx", "+39" being the country code for Italy and "06" the prefix for Rome.
The Tax Code / Fiscal code / Codice Fiscale is a code made of letters and numbers that identifies a person in public administration forms, in private contracts, and money transfers. It looks like this: MLNYSE17A41F205U
Usually, the request can be done by email by filling in a request form and attaching the necessary documentation; the certificate of attribution of the fiscal code number will be returned the same way (via email). Double-check with your nearest Italian Consular services office which procedure they adopt: e.g. some consulates with a bigger volume of fiscal services have a department and a dedicated e-mail for that: if in doubt, use the general consular services contact.
Dear sirs/madams,
I am an international Student at... (My University/Academy)
please find attached in application for the issue of my Tax Code /Codice Fiscale:
- scan of the application form for my tax code, signed
- scan of passport personal data page
- scan of the entry visa (if applicable).
Looking forward to your kind reply,
As you probably know, although it can be generated in a "formally correct" way by using unofficial online tools, only Tax codes issued by the Italian Revenue Agency/ Agenzia delle Entrate are valid by law.
On 15 July 2022, the new Italian code for business crisis and insolvency (the "New Code"), which was adopted by Legislative Decree No. 14/2019, entered into force. The rules set forth under Royal Decree No. 267 of 16 March 1942 (former Italian bankruptcy law) will continue to apply to proceedings commenced before that date.
The New Code incorporates some minor changes into the new out-of-court restructuring procedure (composizione negoziata per la crisi di impresa) introduced by Law Decree no 118/2021 (see client alert -and-insights/legal-updates/new-changes-to-the-italian- bankruptcy-act/).
Hello,
We went to Italy last Fall and received a traffic violation because we were in a lane dedicated for public transport. It is from the Police in Verona. I've tried to pay online but it said my tax code was incorrect. I had to register for one and typed it in exactly. Site says its no good. They will not take a bank check, and I tried to wire money from my bank (small local bank). My bank manager showed me the form but there needs to be a bank listed in US linked with the bank in Italy on the form. My bank does not provide this and I will try to reach out to bigger banks later this week.
The other question I have has anyone used Transferwise to pay? It's cheaper than a local bank but reviews are mixed. Or another wire service? This is so frustrating and it's our 2nd notice from them. We love Italy and want to just pay the darn thing. Thank you in advance!

Non-compliance with precepts laid down in this code of ethics and any action or omission that is not in line with the decorum, dignity or correct performance of the profession are punished through disciplinary sanctions provided for in article 26, first paragraph of Law 56 dated February 18, 1989.
The legislation governing the calculation of the tax code is the decree of the Ministry of Finance of 23 December 1976, ("Sistemi di codificazione dei soggetti da iscrivere all'anagrafe tributaria"), Fortunately for us, the code generation algorithm is really easy. To create it you need: first name, surname, sex, date and place of birth of a subject.
To identify the municipality of birth we use the code called Belfiore, composed of a letter and three numerical digits. For those born outside the Italian territory, whether they are foreign citizens born abroad or born in Italy but of foreign origin, or Italian citizens born abroad, the foreign state of birth is considered: in this case the acronym starts with the letter Z followed by the identification number of the state.
this point, the values obtained from even and odd alphanumeric characters must be added together and the result divided by 26; the rest of the division will provide the identification code, obtained from the following conversion table:
If we know for example the full name, sex and birth day (but not year) we can generate all the possible codes in a date range. If the person is about 20 years old you can generate all the codes between 1995 and 2000 for example.
In any case, if you don't have the technical skill to do so or don't have the time to create your own script, there are many online tools available that allow you to conveniently generate the tax code. For example: this site
At this point it is necessary to verify that the generated tax code is correct. There are many tools available to do so, in particular I used the official portal available on the Inland Revenue website.
Starting from the tax code, it is also possible to request The Chamber of Commerce Visura is the document that provides information on any Italian company, individual or collective, registered in the register of companies kept by the Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Crafts and Agriculture (present in every Italian province). The Chamber of Commerce can be of two different types:
Ordinary: containing the main information on a company, such as personal data, VAT number, date of incorporation, legal nature, REA code, certified e-mail, status of activity, share capital, number of employees, shareholdings in other companies, directors, partners and their offices;
This is a more sensitive phase. Starting from the tax code it is possible to obtain information regarding the vehicles registered in the person's name. In particular, it is possible to obtain technical information on vehicles, their registration, new and old owners and possible legal problems (such as administrative detention).
On Friday, Youth Policy and Sports Minister Giovanna Melandri and Mario Boselli, president of the Italian Fashion Chamber, signed a self-regulating code for Italy's highly competitive fashion industry, reports CBS News reporter Sabina Castelfranco. The code calls for more attention to the "full-bodied" image and a commitment to add larger sizes to collections.
Alas! Microsft Italy misunderstood a change in the Italian VAT law (now abrogated! [6] ) and did a mess. The code is happily useless. We usually kill it as soon as we get a new 5.1 installation started. [:P]
If you like the default solution better, you may add a function to tables 36 and 38 which reads the first (and only) record in table 12124 and returns the code value, then in the InitRecord function add a line like this:
The new Code drafted by the Council of State is self-executing: ie it does not have to be implemented, like previous codes, by adopting subsequent acts of secondary and soft law. The explanatory report to the new Code helps read the articles and is an innovation.
Alt-Codes can be typed on Microsoft Operating Systems:
- First make sure that numlock is on,
- Then press and hold the ALT key,
- While keeping ALT key pressed type the code for the symbol that you want and release the ALT key.
See the detailed instructions on the ALT Code How To for complete information on implementing the code. Additional options for entering accents in Windows are also listed in the Accents section of this Web site.
The numbers in parentheses are the numeric codes assigned in Unicode encoding. For instance, because è is number 232, caffè can also be used to input caffè. These numbers arwalso used with the Windows Alt codes listed above.
Seismic risk reduction of a building system, meant as primary building structure and nonstructural elements (NSEs) as a whole, must rely upon an adequate design of each of these two items. As far as NSEs are concerned, adequate seismic design means understanding of some basic principles and concepts that involve different actors, such as designers, manufacturers, installers, and directors of works. The current Italian Building Code, referred to as NTC18 hereinafter, defines each set of tasks and responsibilities in a sufficiently detailed manner, rendering now evident that achieving the desired performance level stems from a jointed contribution of all actors involved. Bearing in mind that seismic design is nothing else than proportioning properly seismic demand, in terms of acceleration and/or displacement, and the corresponding capacity, this paper gives a synthetic and informative overview on how to evaluate these two parameters. To shed some light on this, the concept of acceleration floor response spectrum (AFRS) is firstly brought in, along with basics of building structure-NSEs interaction, and is then deepened by means of calculation methods. Both the most rigorous method based on nonlinear dynamic simulations and the simplified analytical formulations provided by the NTC18 are briefly discussed and reviewed, trying to make them clearer even to readers with no structural/earthquake engineering background because, as a matter of fact, NSEs are often selected by architects and/or mechanical or electrical engineers. Lastly, a simple case study, representative of a European code-compliant five-storey masonry-infilled reinforced concrete frame building, is presented to examine differences between numerical and analytical AFRS and to quantify accuracy of different NTC18 procedures.
