You do not need to be physically present in Italy to use our service. Everything is handled electronically.
Standard Service ~20 days
This is the usual processing timeframe. After you submit your request, the Italian tax code is typically issued within 20 days on average for completion. This option is ideal if you don’t need the code urgently.
Urgent Service ~7 days
If you are in a rush, we can expedite the process for an additional fee. With the urgent option, you can expect to have your Codice Fiscale in about 7 days. We prioritize your application and coordinate for faster issuance.
Please note that these timeframes are estimates and rely on the responsiveness of the government offices. We initiate the procedure as soon as your order is received and signed, ensuring no delays on our end. Standard Italian government processing and mailing times are built into the estimates above. If any unforeseen delay occurs (for example, if the tax office requests additional info), we will promptly inform you. Overall, our clients find that even the standard service is much faster and simpler than navigating the bureaucracy on their own.
