Italy's 2026 Budget Law introduces a 2% AgCom contribution on Italian‑sourced digital, media and platform revenues, effective March 2026. The levy applies to both Italian and non‑Italian entities, with per‑mille rates ranging from 0.05% to 0.2% across activity categories and a €100 de‑minimis threshold. Filing is required via AgCom's electronic portal, with penalties up to €130,000 for non‑compliance.

The European Commission released the minutes from its 51st Group on the Future of VAT meeting, held on 3 March 2024, which discussed the ViDA package’s e‑invoicing, digital reporting, platform economy VAT and single VAT registration provisions. Key dates include the start of OSS guidelines on single VAT registration on 1 January 2027 and several upcoming GFV/VEG meetings in mid‑2026 that will shape the final Explanatory Notes for 2027.

The European Commission has launched a public consultation and a "Reality Check" event to shape the upcoming revision of EU e-invoicing rules, including the e-invoicing directive and EN 16931 standard. The consultation runs until 10 June 2026, while the interactive event is scheduled for 27 April 2026. The Commission expects the revised directive to be adopted in Q4 2026 as part of the Single Market Strategy.
