Service details
Starting, modifying or ceasing a business activity requires a series of formalities with various public bodies, each with its own procedures, timelines and penalties for delays. Studio CITI snc manages these procedures on behalf of the client, eliminating the risk of errors and ensuring compliance with all deadlines.
For starting a business, the main procedures involve: obtaining a tax code and opening a VAT number with the Revenue Agency (choosing the correct ATECO code and accounting regime), registering with the Companies Registry at the Chamber of Commerce (for businesses), registering with the INPS for the craftsmen's or traders' management for businesses, and registering with the INPS Separate Management for self-employed professionals without a professional pension fund.
During the course of business, the most common changes include: change of registered or operational address, change of corporate purpose or ATECO activity code, addition or modification of partners or directors, switch to a different tax regime. Each change has specific notification deadlines: some must be declared within 30 days, others within shorter timeframes.
For cessation, the firm manages the closure of the VAT number with the Revenue Agency, deregistration from the Companies Registry with the filing of the liquidation balance sheet, and deregistration from applicable INPS managements, verifying that no open contribution or tax positions remain.
Frequently asked questions
How quickly must I open a VAT number from the start of my activity? +
A VAT number must be applied for within 30 days of starting the activity. However, to avoid any risk of penalty, it is strongly recommended to open one before issuing any invoice or receipt. The firm manages the opening electronically within a few hours of receiving the necessary documentation.
What happens if I close my business without cancelling my VAT number? +
Failure to formally close a VAT number obliges the taxpayer to continue filing tax returns and complying with periodic obligations. Moreover, the Revenue Agency may presume that the activity is still ongoing and proceed with assessments. It is essential to communicate the cessation within 30 days of the actual closure date.
Do I need to register with INPS even if I already have a professional pension fund as a lawyer or doctor? +
It depends on the activity carried out. If you practice exclusively the profession for which a professional pension fund exists (e.g. Cassa Forense for lawyers, ENPAM for doctors), registration with INPS is not necessary. However, if you also carry out commercial or craft activities, or if you are a partner in an Srl, there may be additional registration obligations. The firm analyses the specific situation.
