What is an Italian Tax/Fiscal ID Code?

The Tax/Fiscal ID code in Italy is a code that serves to uniquely identify natural persons in their relationships with public institutions and administrations of the Italian State.

The Tax/Fiscal ID code is assigned at birth to a natural person and is issued to each Italian citizen by a public institution called "Agenzia delle Entrate" and can also be assigned to foreign citizens.

The Tax/Fiscal ID code is used by all public administrations in Italy and serves to identify the citizen, the taxpayer and all other subjects required to have it.

For natural persons, the Tax/Fiscal ID code is generally made up of 16 alphanumeric characters. The Tax/Fiscal ID code is created using the surname, name, date of birth, gender and place of birth of the natural person.
