Italian Tax Authority (SDI) Mandate

Electronic Invoicing
for the Italian Market

Full SDI (Sistema di Interscambio) integration for foreign entities and international entrepreneurs. Automated XML generation, validation, and 10-year statutory archiving.

Tax Regulation

What is Fatturazione Elettronica?

Under Italian fiscal law, all domestic B2B and B2C transactions subject to VAT must be transmitted in structured FatturaPA XML format directly through the Agenzia delle Entrate's SDI hub.

Standard PDF invoices or email attachments have no legal fiscal validity in Italy. Invoices are recognized only when accepted and assigned an official transmission ID by the SDI platform.

Mandatory SDI Compliance

Failure to transmit through SDI results in financial penalties up to 180% of VAT amounts and denies tax deductibility for your Italian corporate clients.

Why SDI Hub Integration Matters

Instant Pre-Check & Validation

Validates Codice Fiscale, Partita IVA, and XML schemas before sending to prevent SDI rejections.

Statutory 10-Year Conservation (Conservazione)

Automatic legal digital archiving complying with Italian preservation decrees (DMEF 17 Giugno 2014).

Dedicated Recipient Code (Codice Destinatario)

Receive all your inbound vendor invoices automatically in your dashboard without paper handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I send invoices to non-Italian international customers through SDI?

Yes. Cross-border transactions (Esterometro) can be transmitted through SDI using the conventional recipient code 'XXXXXXX' to record foreign export revenue automatically with the Italian tax office.

Can my Italian commercialista connect to this system?

Yes, we provide dedicated accountant access and monthly XML/ZIP batch export functions so your tax advisors can download and import all entries straight into their accounting software.

What is a Codice Destinatario?

The 7-character Recipient Code tells the SDI where to route vendor invoices addressed to your VAT number. With our system, you receive a dedicated code that directs all inbound bills straight to your dashboard.
