Key facts

VAT returnAnnual, where required

The annual VAT return is separate from periodic VAT settlements and LIPE communications. Settlements may be monthly or quarterly where the conditions are met; LIPE communications concern quarterly periods. Exemptions and special schemes have their own rules. This is not a personalised filing calendar.

Filing information checked: · Agenzia delle Entrate — dichiarazione IVA annuale · Agenzia delle Entrate — liquidazioni periodiche IVA

This is a condition for the forfettario scheme, not a general threshold for opening an Italian VAT number. Further requirements and exclusions apply.

Good to know: The regime forfettario allows eligible freelancers and small businesses not exceeding €85,000/yr to be exempt from VAT, paying a 5% or 15% substitute tax instead. Subject to current legal requirements and annual verification.
