Government compliance - Italy
E-Invoicing
Current mandates
Italy mandates that all invoices be digitally signed (via a certified provider) and uploaded to the Italian tax authorities, namely Agenzia delle Entrate. Properties are also required to legally archive said invoices for a certain number of years. This can be done for free by Casseto Fiscale through the government and/or through private providers that are certified for such services in Italy.
Fiscalisation receipts
Current mandates
Italy requires that receipts given to customers be digitally recorded with the government. Once fiscalised, the receipt given to a customer (physical paper or digital image via text, email, etc.) must contain a government-recorded number. Specialized physical hardware (e.g., by EPSON) is often required to print these receipts; however, this can equally be done digitally without the need for a fiscal printer.
Statistical reporting
Current mandates
Properties in Italy are required to report all guests who stay overnight to the Italian National Statistical Institute (ISTAT reports). The frequency for this overall is monthly; however, each Italian province defines its own way of collecting data. ROSS 1000 (report format) is the collection method in many but not all provinces.
Guest reporting
Current mandates
Italy requires hotels to submit a daily report of guests in the hotel.
