- New E-Customs System Implementation: As of November 30, 2022, the Italian Customs Agency has transitioned to a new electronic customs clearance system, replacing the previous IM message format with telematic data exchanges, which eliminates the need for the Unique Administrative Document (DAU).
- Operational Challenges: Importing companies are encountering difficulties in obtaining summary documents due to the current manual search and download methods on the Customs Agency’s website. These methods do not allow for bulk downloads, resulting in time inefficiencies and potential errors in VAT accounting.
- Need for Streamlined Processes: The lack of automated recovery options for customs documents necessitates improved systems to facilitate easier access and management of import-related documentation, ensuring accurate VAT compliance and reducing administrative burdens for businesses.
