|

Emma Potter

On July 11, 2024, Resolution No. 35 was issued by the Revenue Agency, which introduces new tax codes to be used for the payment via the F24 form of the sums due following control activities, judicial conciliation, requests for rectification and re-liquidation of the tax in relation to the registration of deeds.

This resolution represents a significant step towards simplifying tax procedures for taxpayers and tax professionals.

What are the practical implications of these changes and how will they affect payment processes?

Extension of payment via F24

The MEF decree of 8 November 2011 extended the use of the F24 form for the payment of the registration tax. This measure has significantly simplified tax procedures, allowing taxpayers to use a single form for different taxes.

Subsequently, the Revenue Agency issued a series of provisions to further expand the applicability of the F24 form.

Regulatory interventions have allowed to include sums due for the registration of lease and rental contracts of real estate, judicial authority documents requested by the Revenue Agency, private documents, public documents and authenticated private deeds. Furthermore, it has also been extended to the tax on donations, in cases of registration at the territorial offices of the Revenue Agency.
