Just in case anyone else has been making the same mistake as me....If your comune has an IMU rate higher than the standard 0.76% (e.g.

I just saw today that just paying the IMU is not enough but we have to do an 'Imposta Municipale Propria - Dichiarazione per l'anno 2012'.

I have just had to create a secure email account (PEC in Italian) so that I can communicate a SCIA with my comune. It seems this is the way it is going for most comune now.

We have formed a Societa' Agricola which has puchased our new farm. I am guessing that when I pay the IMU, the F24 needs to be in the name of the Societa' as this is the owner of the property.

Thanks Sprostoni (great website) but unfortunately no webcams on the French/Ligurian border :-( Casa Monal - we were thinking more in terms of the stops and controls the French have been doing due to the immigrants/refugees gathering in Ventimiglia and trying to get into France. Just didn't fancy getting caught up in all that.
I thinks it's a mulberry or a 'mora' in Italian.
I agree with Fillide. Most of the Tunisians seem to want to head to France were they have family and at least can speak the language. As the French decided to setup border patrols and none of the EU countries were helping with a huge influx of people (but at the same time loudly complaining that Italy had agreements with North African countries to send migrants back - gone quiet in that front strangely), Italy took the matter into their own hands in what I consider to be creative thinking and gave them temporary papers. The French have no basis upon which to refuse them entry unless they leave the Schengen agreement.
There is no requirement to put the Camera di Commercio details on your website but you are required by law to put your P.IVA and contact details. It may be because not every profession needs a registration. For example, I am not required to register despite being fully legal here.
Badger, you an look anyone in Italy up here: http://www.infoimprese.it/impr/index.jsp You will need to know their trading name,
All his contact details are on the website. I have never used him as an agent but I have met him a couple of times so he definitely exists! He is registered with the Camera di Commercio for "COMPRAVENDITA DI IMMOBILI (DAL 21.3.2005)". Not sure what other registrations you would want from an estate agent.
That's interesting RAM. I was told that there would be no fines but that if they were not registered by the deadline (which keeps moving) then you leave yourself open to the Agenzia del Territorio doing the accatatamento for you (likely to be unfavourable) and sending you the bill. I was also advised that if the current owners send n a form saying the accatastamento is in progress then this would prevent the Agenzia del Territorio from taking action for a few months. Is this your understanding?
Thanks folks. I think it's expensive too. RAM - The rural building is not on the list of case fantasme but has never been registered on the urban register either. Strictly speaking I don't think we need to do it as my OH will be regsitered as a farmer and it is a farm building BUT we want to convert it to habitable space so it is cheaper to get it done before we do the atto I believe. Thanks for the explanantion Fillide - the maglia fiduciale had me completely stumped! The reason I think it's dear is because the volumes are tiny. Just 2 outbuildings of approx 12 sqm each and a rural building of 100sqm. I only paid €1300 for the accatastamento of a great big 550sqm farmhouse so it has left me scratching my head. Maybe it's the 'riviera' factor in Liguria??
Yes, their fees are tax deductable! It's foohardy not to have an accountant Bunterboy. If you make a mistake with your taxes or get something wrong then it is extremely costly. Tax fines are in the region of 30% plus fees and interest not to mention the fact that the taxman can decide you have underdeclared and send you a bill accordingly. He does not need to prove this - you have to prove that you haven't! Personally, I don't understand how the average person affords anything in this country as it is so expensive.
It's miniscule Bunterboy. About €800 for a child and the same for a dependent adult plus that is only if you earn less than €15,000 pa. If you earn more then the allowances are less. You can decut many more items than in the UK but it is INPS that is the killer. If you are fortunate enough to not have to pay a minimum sum (which is payable regardless of whether you make any money or even bill a penny) then it is approx 25% on top of the IRPEF and local taxes. The info on Angloinfo is often out of date unfortunately. The section on residency is very out of date for example. A good accountant is vital here.
