The Agenzia delle Entrate (Revenue Agency) handles all Italian tax matters. It was created in 2001 by splitting the old Ministero delle Finanze. For everyday purposes, it issues codici fiscali, handles rental contract registrations, and provides tax assistance. Most services are now accessible online via SPID.

Ho ricevuto un avviso dell'Agenzia delle Entrate.
I received a notice from the Revenue Agency.

Italy introduced the cedolare secca (flat tax) rental regime in 2011, allowing landlords to pay a flat 21% or 10% tax on rental income instead of the standard income tax rates. Registration of contracts is handled electronically via the Agenzia delle Entrate's RLI portal. The system has significantly increased rental contract formalisation.
