Additional Information

In Italy, businesses must withhold taxes from payments to certain types of vendors. Withholding tax is the tax on non-inventory services, delivered by a vendor, who is not an employee in the company.

A company that employs independent contractors or consultants is legally responsible for withholding a percentage of purchase invoice amounts at the time of payment. This amount is paid to the government as an advance on the income taxes that the vendor will owe at the end of the year. Withholding tax is calculated during invoice payment rather than during invoice posting.

Each year, businesses must submit form 770 to the tax authority. This form contains information about the suppliers from whom withholding tax has been collected.
