Italy confirms Pescara MOSS office

Italy confirmed yesterday that its Pescara VAT office is responsible for the processing of MOSS VAT registrations and returns.

All Italian firms providing e-serivces to Italian and other EU consumers should file their Mini One-Stop-Shop digital services returns at Pescara. Non-EU companies choosing Italy as their single registration country should contact Pescara too.

The MOSS registration scheme was introduced on 1 January 2015. It enables all EU digital services providers to file a single return covering all sales to consumers outside of their domestic VAT return. It mirrored a regime for non-EU companies which had been in place since 2003. The MOSS return was implemented following the change in place of supply rules on B2C digital VAT.


Need a fiscal representative in Italy?

Non-EU businesses selling in Italy will need to appoint a fiscal representative alongside completing VAT registration and returns.
Fiscal representatives are responsible for the accurate VAT submissions of their non-EU clients.
Avalara offers a Fiscal Representative Service as part of its international VAT and GST Registration and Returns Service.
