A small fiscal revolution, which went quietly, is about to arrive. From XNUMX July, for each unpaid fine, the tax authorities will be able to seize the current account of the fined taxpayer and withdraw the amount to be paid directly from the account.
An important novelty for which there will not even be a need for a judge's approval and which will allow the financial administration to get its hands on everyone's current accounts. A change that consumer associations do not like, already on a war footing even before the entry into force of the new legislation. The same rules will also apply to unpaid bills, car stamps, INPS contributions and taxes to be paid.
The new discipline was triggered by the suppression of Equitalia which, starting from 1 July, will flow into the Revenue Agency which will therefore also deal with the collection of receivables. It will be precisely this new structure that will allow Equitalia to access the databases of the tax authorities, check the amounts in the current accounts of each taxpayer and seize them.
However, the withdrawal will not be automatic. In the first instance, each fined taxpayer who has not paid the amount owed will receive notices and payment reminders. At this point there will be 60 days to pay off your debt by paying the full amount or paying in installments. Of course, you can also appeal. After the 60 days available, the compulsory recovery will start.
