While S.I.T. is now one of the leading firms in Rome offering
company set-up services, its core business has always been dealing with the
accounts of individuals and companies alike. Corporate and personal tax rates
in Italy are among the highest in Western Europe, and coupled with significant
pension contributions and high personnel costs it is highly important to ensure
that income is maximised. Among the services offered by S.I.T. are:
Periodic Returns: S.I.T. can look after all your obligatory
returns to the various agenicies in Italy. In fact, and unlike many other
countries, it is quite difficult for companies to look after this on their
own. VAT returns, Social Security and insurance contributions as well as standard
tax returns can all be taken care of by our staff.
Social Security Registering for, and paying contributions
to INPS (the State Pensions system) is, for both companies and sole traders,
obligatory and expensive. Unfortunately S.I.T. cannot reduce the level of
contributions that have to be paid but we can certainly make the process easier
and advise, where possible, how savings can be made.
VAT VAT or IVA (in Italian) is obigatory for nearly all types
of sales of both services and products in Italy. Offsetting IVA from purchases
against those of sales is therefore an extrmely important way of maximising
profitability. S.I.T can offer advice on when and where IVA can be offset
and can also look after periodic returns of IVA in order to maximise cashflow.
