- Upon the death of a self-employed professional, heirs inherit fiscal obligations related to the VAT number, invoices, and credits.
- The VAT number must remain open until all professional relationships are closed, all invoices are issued, and credits are collected.
- Heirs are responsible for issuing invoices and fulfilling tax duties within six months of the professional’s death, as per Article 35-bis of DPR 633/1972.
- The professional activity is considered ceased only after all pending operations are completed, including the collection of credits and disposal of business assets.
- If an heir does not accept the inheritance, they have no rights or obligations regarding the deceased’s professional matters.
