Value-added Tax (VAT)

When selling goods and services in Italy, VAT ("imposta sul valore aggiunto", "IVA") may apply. You can configure all Italian VAT rates in pretix using tax rules, including more complex tax cases (e.g. intra-EU reverse charge transactions).

Invoicing

E-invoicing

Italy requires all domestic invoices to be issued using an electronic standard and sent through the national invoicing system ("Sistema di Interscambio", "SdI").

pretix Hosted

On pretix Hosted, sending invoices through SdI is supported. To get started, go to navigation pathYour event then Settings then Plugins and enable the plugin "E-invoicing for Italy (via Invopop)". Then, go to navigation pathYour event then Settings then E-invoicing fill out the settings and follow all recommendations. Invoices will be transmitted to SdI automatically through our partner Invopop S.L. and their subprocessor A-Cube srl. An additional price per invoice is charged according to our price list.

pretix Enterprise and pretix Community currently do not support the Italian invoicing process.

More information is available on the website of the European Commission: eInvoicing in Italy.

pretixPOS

Using a cash register in Italy requires the use of a "Registratore Telematico" (RT). pretixPOS currently does not support RT and can therefore not be used as a cash register in Italy.

SIAE

SIAE is Italy's association of authors and publishers. If you sell tickets for events involving works protected by SIAE, you must report ticket sales to SIAE using a specialized system. pretix does not support this.
