The aim of this publication, which has been prepared for the exclusive use of BDO Member Firms and their clients and prospective clients, is to provide background information for setting up and running a business in Italy, in compliance with the legislation in force on 1 January 2007. It is of use to anyone who is thinking of establishing a business in Italy as a separate entity, as a branch of a foreign company or as a subsidiary of an existing foreign company, and to anyone who is considering coming to work or live permanently in Italy.
The publication describes the business environment in Italy and outlines the financial and legal implications of running, or working for, an Italian business. The most important issues are included, but it is not feasible to discuss every subject in detail within this format. Accordingly, Doing Business in Italy is written in general terms and is not intended to be comprehensive. If you would like to know more, please contact the BDO Member Firms with which you normally deal, who can provide you with information on any further issues and on the impact of any legislation subsequent to 1 January 2007.
