- The Italian tax authority, Agenzia delle Entrate, has stated that there will be no VAT deduction if the invoice is arbitrarily viewed.
- If a courtesy copy of the invoice is provided, the recipient must verify the documents made available.
- If the invoice cannot be delivered, it will be made available in the recipient’s reserved area on the Agenzia delle Entrate website, and the supplier will notify the customer.
- In this case, the date of receipt is when the recipient views the document, and this action cannot be arbitrarily delayed.
- The Agenzia delle Entrate expressed this in response to an inquiry, stating that any delay would result in a postponement of the starting point for VAT deduction.
- The case in question involves a company preparing its annual declaration for 2021 and discovering some missing documents.
