- Italy’s Revenue Agency can now automatically assess VAT for missing annual VAT returns using e-invoices, telematic receipts, and LIPE data.
- The penalty is 120% of the VAT due, with a minimum of €250, plus 4% annual interest.
- Taxpayers are notified by PEC or registered mail and have 60 days to respond or pay.
- If paid within 60 days, the penalty is reduced to one-third.
- These assessments can be issued until December 31 of the seventh year after the return was due, and payment cannot be offset with non-VAT tax credits.
