- In transactions with public administrations, payment may be partially or fully compensated with credits rather than paid in cash.
- This raises questions about the application of the split payment regime (art. 17-ter, DPR 633/72).
- Tax authorities clarified that split payment does not apply when compensation occurs between mutual credits, as the supplier already has the due amount and both parties are fiscally reliable.
- The same simplification applies to barter transactions (operazioni permutative) for service payments.
- These practices aim to simplify compliance where there is no real risk of non-payment.
