Many of our clients, coming from CIS countries (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus) do not quite understand the importance of a good commercial specialist in the life of a tax resident of Italy, and do not understand us when we recommend not to delay in choosing a personal commercial specialist – simply – personal accountant.
Let’s understand why a foreign resident needs to fill in an income tax return
When and under what circumstances a foreign citizen resident in Italy is obliged to file a tax return:
-
With the advent of the CRS reporting standard, every foreign resident of a Convention country is required to file a tax return. Regardless of the type of residence permit;
-
all those who plan to obtain Italian citizenship are required to file an income tax return;
-
and of course all those foreign residents who earn income while working in Italy.
In all these cases, we advise you to involve a professional for this purpose.
Of course, some of the locals will tell you that they file the declaration themselves, downloading from the Internet the necessary tax report form.
But this is a “local resident” and he probably has a very small business that does not require much reporting.
Who uses the services of a businessman in Italy:
-
“Lavoro autonomo” all those who are self-employed and provide a service that does not require a special licence;
-
“Libero professionista” all those who work under licence or have graduated from a University or Technical School (architect, lawyer, doctor, etc.);
-
Business owners. All types of companies in Italy.
The advantages of a personal comercialista:
-
your documents are always in order;
-
no overpayments or debts – the specialist will count everything and remind you of your financial situation;
-
you don’t have to worry about surprises or mistakes – everything is correctly drawn up and paid on time – there are no claims against you;
-
you do not need to keep track of all amendments and clarifications in the tax legislation. A personal commercial expert will study everything for you. Depending on these changes will offer you the best solution for you;
-
will save you from paperwork bureaucracy;
-
your taxes are 100 per cent optimised;
-
all errors in the work of the commercialist (everyone has the right to make a mistake) are insured for large sums. You will not be in any danger.
A good commercialist is a great asset!
Yes, it is clear that no one works for free – let’s say in advance that such a specialist costs from 500 euros per year and more, depending on the size of your business, but the order in the documents and peace of mind – it is worth it.
Where to find a good commercial specialist for your personal or business tax records
Good people, as we know, pass from hand to hand, and this rule works especially in Italy, where connections are very important.
So, we offer options on how you can find your trustworthy commercial accountant:
-
ask us;
-
ask people you know;
-
search on the websites of accountancy agencies and read reviews.
It is better to use the first advice, in extreme cases – the second.
Each of you has your own personal history and practice in business, residence permits for different reasons and from different countries, your own nuances and personal wishes. In the matter of taxation, “clichés” like your neighbour do not work. Make an appointment and get your personal tax optimisation programme.
In turn, we would like to introduce you to a commercial specialist in our project.
