The agreement between the Revenue Agency and the National Council of Notaries
The implementation of the “Voltura 2.0 – Telematics” service was born from a recent agreement between the Revenue Agency and the National Council of Notaries, with the aim of expanding and facilitating access to digital tools for the management of land registry practices.
Thanks to this collaboration, all notaries will be able to pay the special cadastral taxes and stamp duty through an automatic withdrawal, directly linked to the transmission services of the cadastral update documents.
This process not only reduces the time needed to manage the paperwork, but also ensures greater accuracy and security in the payment of the sums due.

The advantages
The “Voltura 2.0 – Telematics” service represents a significant step forward towards digitalisation of land registry requirements. The procedure is based on a series of interactive services that allow the notary to interact in real time with the data present in the main archives of the Revenue Agency, including the cadastral and mortgage databases and the Tax Registry.
This electronic connection guarantees immediate availability of the information necessary to prepare and update the cadastral registrations, allowing us to avoid errors or inconsistencies that could compromise the validity of the transfers.
One of the main advantages of this platform is the possibility of managing “replacement” transfers. This type of operation occurs when it is necessary to replace a previous cadastral registration with a new one, maintaining the continuity of variations over time unchanged. By checking the “against” subjects, the procedure verifies the identity and correctness of the data entered, safeguarding the history of the headers and guaranteeing that each change of ownership or update occurs according to the right sequence.
This avoids duplication, data loss or errors in recording information.
Furthermore, the platform provides immediate support to the professional during compilation, reporting any inconsistencies and allowing them to be corrected before completing the procedure. This automation translates into greater efficiency and speed in carrying out land registry procedures, reducing the number of rectification requests and processing times.

The types of transfers that can be managed
The new telematic platform allows notaries to manage different types of transfers. Among these, the automatic transfer: a procedure designed to recover unsuccessful transfers. This functionality is particularly useful in the event that the notary or public official has already sent the single form, but the registration has not been completed correctly, generating a negative outcome. In this situation, the service allows you to recover the original application without having to repeat the entire procedural process.
However, it is important to underline that automatic transfer cannot be used to rectify errors in the transcription note caused by incorrect compilation by the public official. In such circumstances, a different procedure must be adopted for correcting the transcript. This distinction is fundamental to guarantee the legal correctness and linearity of the information reported in the land and mortgage registers.
The electronic management of these operations does not involve additional costs, and allows a significant saving of time compared to traditional paper methods, thus increasing the productivity of the professionals involved.

Annotation questions
In addition to transfers, the “Voltura 2.0 – Telematics” platform allows notaries to also submit applications for annotation. This type of request is used when it is not necessary to transfer ownership of a property from one person to another, but instead you want to perfect or update the already existing cadastral registration.
The annotations may concern modifications, deletions or additions to previously recorded data, in order to guarantee that the information present in the cadastral database is always correct and aligned with the real situation.
To submit an annotation request, the applicant must attach specific supporting documents, such as notarial deeds, decrees, sentences or other legal provisions that demonstrate the need for updating. These documents are essential to justify the annotation and to ensure the correctness of the requested changes. However, unlike transfers, deeds of notoriety are not permitted, since the annotation must be supported by official documentation and not by unilateral declarations.
In terms of costs, registration applications require the payment of stamp duty only, without further special taxes. This makes the procedure particularly convenient and accessible for professionals who need to complete the cadastral registrations without changing the ownership of the property.

Towards the complete dematerialisation of cadastral obligations
The introduction of “Voltura 2.0 – Telematics” is part of a broader process digitalization and dematerialization of land registry obligations initiated by the Revenue Agency. The final objective is to simplify and make more efficient all procedures related to the management of headers and cadastral changes, offering tools that reduce the use of paper and improve the quality of the data present in the cadastral databases.
This approach not only promotes faster and more precise alignment of information, but also helps reduce errors and inconsistencies in records.
The extension of the service to all notaries represents an important step towards a fully computerized cadastral management system, in which every operation can be performed digitally, from consulting information to updating headers, up to paying taxes.
Digitization saves time and resources, eliminating the need to physically submit applications and reducing the risk of losing documents.
