- The EU Commission has proposed extending Italy’s split payment VAT system until 30 June 2029.
- The extension would keep the current scope unchanged, with no changes to who it applies to.
- The proposal still needs approval from the EU Council; the Italian Ministry of Economy and Finance confirmed it.
- Split payment requires VAT shown on invoices to be paid directly to the tax authority by the buyer, not the supplier.
- Italy argues the system helps recover taxes and combat fraud, especially through checks enabled by mandatory e-invoicing.
