cardi, Italy is a democratic and free country, anybody can interpret the law to their liking and pay for not being in line with the standards set by the regulations :)

  Spostoni , Bed& Breakfast, in Italian means UN POSTO LETTO E UNA COLAZIONE ,  ed UN POSTO LETTO ED UNA COLAZIONE NOT  is an apartment consisting of bedroom, living room, kitchen, bathroom, terrace and garage - the Italian way to write the laws and to interpret them is certainly different from all other countries in the world - it may be for this reason that it was made a law that requires, for all those who want to live in Italy, the Italian language - this is to make it clear to all that this forum who is not in able to understand the Italian language, if you interpret it in line with the thinking of his country, then this is likely to pay dearly for his actions

Spostoni, i am sorry .. NO common sense varies as interpretation beetwin english and italian policy :)

The B &B is not a business, but only a small private gain, then you do not need a VAT - yes the traslation is ok  RENT  = B&B if the renting not  more than 7 days - EXCEPT for  <they are employed in the field of cinema and entertainment > this according an VERY OLD italian laws (when in italy have a " case di tolleranza  (= brothel ! ) " - on this activities , women where replaced every 7 days ..:)  MORE >>   http://www.bed-and-breakfast.it/leggi_bed_and_breakfast_nazionale.cfm italian Turist law - > even for B&B and Renting yet , you can't only traslate , is necessary even to understand ... - The italian language , some times, explain very little linear , expecialy for those who have not real knowledge of the language - You need an accountant specialized on this matter - maybe you can go to chambre of the commerce , turism section - or hotel association (search local section of AICA - associazione Italiana Compagnie alberghiere )         

  see : http://www.bed-and-breakfast.it/leggi_bed_and_breakfast_umbria.cfm Art. 16/bis (Servizio di alloggio e prima colazione "Bed and Breakfast") Costituisce servizio di alloggio e prima colazione "Bed And Breakfast" l'attività a conduzione familiare esercitata in modo saltuario e senza carattere di imprenditorialità all'interno dell'abitazione.

An accountantis the best choice, in my website < www.lifeinitaly.it > - you can find a list of professionals who speak English - the laws on vacation rentals in Italy are different from region to region, but in principle if the income that you from your holiday home does not exceed 75% of your total income, you can rent without having to apply for a license and a  VAT  number

before giving advice, it would be good to know if Angela and his brothers, have Italian citizenship and nation in which they live now (it is not written in his post) - remember that the Italian consulate in any country, it is as a part of Italy, therefore there is no need to go to Italy to make any document or action on the Italian-owned Italian citizens, but simply contact the offices of the consulate -

  if you have Italian citizenship or birth, should go to the Italian consulate and ask the notary service !
