Italy Invoice Generator
- Italia
Creating invoices in Italy requires compliance with local tax regulations. Every invoice must include your Codice Fiscale (tax identification number) and, if you are VAT-registered, your Partita IVA. The applicable VAT rates in Italy are: 22% (standard), 10% (reduced), 4% (super-reduced). Invoices must use a sequential numbering system and include both the issue date and delivery date.
If your annual turnover stays below 85,000 EUR, you may qualify for the small business exemption known as Regime forfettario. Under 85,000 EUR annual revenue, the flat-rate regime (regime forfettario) applies; no VAT is charged.
For cross-border B2B services within the EU, the reverse charge mechanism applies. Instead of charging VAT, you include the statement: "Inversione contabile" on your invoice. Our generator handles all of this automatically — just select your country and invoice type.

Frequently asked questions about invoicing in Italy
What must an Italian invoice (fattura) contain?
Article 21 of DPR 633/1972 sets the content: date and sequential number, the supplier's and the customer's details including the Partita IVA (or the customer's Codice Fiscale for a private person), a description of the goods or services, the taxable amount, the VAT rate and the VAT amount. Under the flat-rate scheme (regime forfettario) no VAT is charged and the invoice cites the scheme instead.
What is the regime forfettario threshold?
The flat-rate scheme is open to businesses and professionals with revenue up to 85,000 EUR a year. Above 100,000 EUR it stops applying immediately.
Is e-invoicing mandatory in Italy?
Yes. Domestic B2B and B2C invoices go through the SdI (Sistema di Interscambio) as FatturaPA XML since 1 January 2019, and since January 2024 that includes businesses on the flat-rate scheme. A PDF from euinvoice is a readable copy for your client; the legal invoice is the one sent through SdI.
When is the 2 EUR stamp duty (marca da bollo) due?
On an invoice without VAT, such as a regime forfettario invoice, when the amount is above 77.47 EUR. On an electronic invoice it is declared with the virtual stamp duty field and paid to the Agenzia delle Entrate; euinvoice prints the matching note on the PDF copy.
