Non-compliance Will Result in Inventory Freeze"},"content":{"rendered":"
Starting in 2026, the Italian Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) has implemented two mandatory compliance requirements for non-EU sellers using FBA, Pan-EU, and overseas warehouses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Tax representatives must be formally registered with the Italian Tax Agency, rather than merely being listed in name only;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
A financial guarantee of at least 50,000 euros must be submitted, valid for at least 36 months.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Sellers who do not meet both of these requirements will have their Italian VAT numbers marked as \u201cinvalid\u201d in the EU\u2019s VIES system. Amazon will take a series of enforcement actions as a result, ranging from making inventory unsellable and preventing the creation of shipments to suspending order fulfillment and disabling the Pan-EU service. A large number of sellers have already found themselves in a difficult situation after ignoring early email notifications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This article provides a detailed breakdown of the new regulation\u2019s eligibility criteria, types of guarantees, compliance procedures, and emergency response plans to help sellers on the Italian marketplace avoid having their inventory locked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n
I. Key Points of the New Regulations: Both Conditions Are Essential<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
conditional<\/th>
specification<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Tax and Finance Representatives Officially Registered<\/td>
Tax representatives must complete registration and verification in the Italian Revenue Agency\u2019s database and hold an official CODICE FISCALE number.<\/td><\/tr>
A financial guarantee of 50,000 euros<\/td>
Amount \u2265 \u20ac50,000, validity period \u2265 36 months; must be issued by a bank or insurance company recognized in Italy<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\u26a0\ufe0f Note: Simply having an Italian VAT number does not guarantee compliance. If a tax representative is not officially registered with the tax authority, the VAT number will still be flagged as invalid by the VIES system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\ud83d\udca1 If you\u2019re unsure whether your tax and financial representative is in compliance, or if you haven\u2019t yet arranged the 50,000-euro guarantee, please contact us immediately for a free compliance assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
II. Three Forms of a 50,000-Euro Guarantee and a Comparison of Their Costs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Forms of Security<\/th>

Annual Fee Guidelines<\/th>

Bank Guarantee<\/td>
Issued by an authorized Italian banking institution<\/td>
\u20ac1,500\u2013\u20ac3,500<\/td>

Insurance Guarantee<\/td>
Issued by an insurance company authorized by IVASS<\/td>
Annual premium (subject to eligibility)<\/td>
No need to freeze funds<\/td><\/tr>
Government Bonds<\/td>
Purchase Italian government bonds and maintain their market value<\/td>
Depending on market interest rates<\/td>
Need to purchase bonds<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Recommended Option: Most sellers choose insurance-backed guarantees, which do not require tying up large sums of money\u2014they simply pay an annual fee, offering the highest level of flexibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
III. Consequences of Non-Compliance: From Unsaleable Inventory to a Complete Service Outage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Once a VAT number expires in the VIES system, Amazon will take the following steps in phases:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
point<\/th>
Specific Impacts<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Phase I<\/td>
Italian FBA Inventory Marked as \"Unavailable for Sale\"<\/td><\/tr>
Phase II<\/td>
Unable to create a new shipment to the Italian warehouse<\/td><\/tr>
Phase III<\/td>
Order cancellation has been suspended; inventory can only be returned to a local address in Italy.<\/td><\/tr>
Phase IV<\/td>
Pan-EU, FBA Value Recovery, and VAT Calculation services are not available<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\u26a0\ufe0f Temporary workaround: If you hold a VAT number from another EU country, you can continue selling to Italy through the EFN (European Fulfillment Network), but you will still need to comply with Italian regulations in the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If your Italian VAT number is showing as invalid or your grace period is about to expire, please contact us immediately\u2014we\u2019ll use our expedited processing channel to restore your VIES status as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
IV. Comprehensive Compliance Process (Three-Step Approach)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Step 1: Verify the Qualifications of the Financial and Tax Representative<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Obtain the CODICE FISCALE (Tax ID) of the tax representative<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Verify whether the company is officially registered through the Italian tax authority's database<\/li>\n\n\n\n
If you are not registered, you must immediately appoint a compliant tax and financial representative.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Step 2: Obtain a 50,000-euro guarantee<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Work with financial and tax representatives to connect with banks or insurance companies recognized in Italy<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Select a Form of Guarantee (Insurance Guarantee Recommended)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Submit the guarantee documents to the office of the Italian Revenue Agency responsible for your registration.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Step 3: Check the VIES status<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Log in to the EU VIES website and enter your Italian VAT number<\/li>\n\n\n\n
The confirmation status is displayed as \u201cValid\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n
If this still does not resolve the issue, please contact your tax representative or the tax authority to follow up on the matter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
V. Emergency Measures During the Grace Period: Applying for an Extension<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
If your Amazon Account Health page displays the message \u201cItalian EU VAT number rejected\u201d but the compliance process is still in progress, you can try submitting an extension request on Seller Central:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
Log in to the Seller Platform \u2192 \u201cAccount Status\u201d page<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Submit an extension request and upload one of the following supporting documents:\n
\n
AA7\/10 Form and Supporting Documentation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
ANR\/3 Form and Submission Receipt<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Proof of Submission of Financial Guarantee<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
\u26a0\ufe0f Applying for an extension does not guarantee approval under 100%; the fundamental solution is to complete the sponsorship and representative registration as soon as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
