The tax code is one of the most important identifying elements for every Italian citizen and foreign residents in Italy. Consisting of sixteen alphanumeric characters, this code allows theInternal Revenue Service and other authorities to uniquely identify each individual.
What is the tax code and how does it work
The tax code consists of a series of letters and numbers that represent a person’s first name, last name, date and place of birth. This system ensures that every citizen has a unique code. Specifically:
- the first three letters are derived from the last name,
- the next three from the first name,
- then follows the date and year of birth,
- finally, the place of birth is indicated.
The resulting numbers and letters form a combination that reflects personal information, thus allowing a clear distinction between citizens.
