The Tax Code Check for a Person service allows you to check the validity of a private individual's tax code in real-time and is currently available only for Italy.

The tax code uniquely identifies Italian citizens and is essential for registering and monitoring individuals and their transactions with public and private entities. Assigned by the Revenue Agency (the Italian tax agency), the code is similar to the social security number used in other countries.

The tax code consists of 16 alphanumeric characters:

  • 6 characters for surname and name
  • 8 characters for date and place of birth
  • 2 final control characters

Verifying the tax code is crucial to ensure that the provided code corresponds to an existing and registered person in the Italian tax system. This tool helps prevent fraud and abuse by ensuring that the code is valid and belongs to the person indicated.

Unlike other APIs, the Openapi service not only checks the formal correctness of the entered tax code but also verifies if it is actually present with the Revenue Agency.

By integrating this service, you will be able to verify the identity of customers and suppliers in real-time, ensuring that commercial transactions are conducted with legitimate and registered parties.
