Payment of stamp duty on electronic invoices: how the calculation is made
Starting from the data indicated during compilation in the electronic invoice layouts, the Revenue Agency processes two lists to be considered for the payment of stamp duty:
● list A, which cannot be modified and derives from the documents that specifically contain the annotation;
● list B, on which it is possible to intervene, with the data of the electronic invoices which do not indicate the payment of stamp duty, but for which the tax is due.
The change can also be made by intermediaries in possession of the delegation for the “Consultation and acquisition of electronic invoices or their electronic duplicates” service or the delegation for the “Consultation of data relevant for VAT purposes” service.
The information is made available to VAT subjects in relation to four quarterly deadlines set on the calendar. They tend to indulge 15 days to intervene on the lists drawn up by the Revenue Agency and 15 days before the deadline to be respected, view lthe final amount due.
It is up to the taxpayer to choose whether to complete the F24 model or whether to use the specific web functionality of the “Invoices and fees” portal by indicating theIBAN corresponding to the current account in the taxpayer’s name, from which the amount of stamp duty due is debited.
Using the Revenue’s online tools, even in the event of a delay, the values of penalties and interest to be paid are automatically calculated.
