VAT Data Filed with Companies Register Bind the Tax Authority, Supreme Court Rules

  • The Italian Supreme Court (Corte di Cassazione) ruled that Article 35, paragraph 8 of DPR 633/72 is immediately binding and self-executing.
  • Data on VAT (IVA) communicated to the Business Register (Registro delle Imprese) is binding on the Italian Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate).
  • In the examined case, a tax assessment was annulled because the Revenue Agency failed to consider a company’s properly filed change of data with the Business Register.
  • The Court rejected the Revenue Agency’s argument that the rule only applied after a 2004 ministerial decree, affirming that the law was effective immediately upon enactment.
  • Obligations regarding the start, change, or cessation of business activity can be fulfilled by communicating with the Business Register, which then transmits the data to the Revenue Agency.
