Italy Launches Online Verification for Non-Resident Tax Representatives and Compliance Requirements

  • The Italian Revenue Agency launched an online verification service for tax representatives of non-resident economic operators on February 25, 2026.
  • The service allows interested parties to verify if tax representatives meet legal requirements, including those from non-EU countries.
  • A 2025 Decree requires tax representatives to submit a declaration of compliance and provide a deposit based on the number of represented persons.
  • The verification tool functions similarly to the EU VAT Information Exchange System (VIES) and requires entering the tax representative’s tax code.
  • Recent rule changes have led to many tax representatives losing accreditation, and the deposit requirement is now tied to the number of taxable persons represented.
