Hi TV Licence exemption. It's time to ask for exemption again and looking at my options I want to do this by PEC email for the first time. So does anyone already apply by PEC email and does it work OK?
Hmm the only tax I don't pay and don't want to pay, because I don't have a TV, is the TV Canone, I don't want to take elective residence for the sake of this €70 / €90 charge each year.
The only Italian document I have is my Codice Fiscale, I have no other documents as a non-resident, no identity card, no medical card, no driving licence so I don't think I can get a SPID.
And out of interest I was reading an article, I can't remember if it was on the BBC or in the local Italian newspaper, that the European Digital Wallet is gradually taking over paper documents. I suppose if you already have an digital presence to have everything in one system is the next step to take.
Thanks Modicasa. If I'm reading this correctly, I see LetteraSenzaBusta offer, if I follow all their steps, a PEC email TV licence cancellation service for €9,95.
And they offer a firma digitale via video confirmation.
Is this right? and are LetteraSenzaBusta a good, known company, because they do ask for details including a copy of my passport.
How interesting, we either drive for the long stays or fly for the short, I have wondered about using the train to get there but what has put me off is working out and more, relying on the connections.
A long time ago we used to make the car journey into part of the holiday, then over Covid we travelled from UK - Italy - UK as quickly as possible now I think it's time to start enjoying the journey more slowly again.
Hi Hopeful Out of interest would you pay extra (1 or 2 euros for example) each time if you were to pay by direct debit?
We pay bills including ENEL and ETRA by UK credit card or Paypal on email receipt of the bill and this seems to work OK for us.
I chickened out of paying to Italian and German IBAN numbers before, I had a speeding fine for both these countries to pay, and I took all the details to my local bank so the bank cashier could make sure the right details were used.
And MelanieClark, are you talking about IMU or another tax? I was, and continue to be, really surprised that within a day of us asking the Comune for our IMU taxes to be calculated they send us, by email, the taxes to be paid and their calculations. Much easier than us trying to work it out and hoping we've got it right.

I don't live in Italy, I live in the UK. We have a home in Italy but spend less than 180 days there each year.

Hi Ugo As a non-resident I thought I couldn't get a SPID, all my documents are UK issued.

Thanks, that's good to know. We're flying in Dec and probably will fly again Feb/Mar but then we'll have a look at the train.
