The Italian EC Sales List [ESL] must be filed each calendar month. Businesses can however opt for filing the Statement on a quarterly basis provided the intra-EU transactions do not exceed €50.000 within the past four quarters. The ESL has to be filed before the 25th day of the month following the reporting period [month/quarter] to which it relates.
Italy is one of few countries who do not require a separate EC Sale List declaration within the European Union. All the relevant data is collected in it’s Intrastat and High Value Transaction Reporting.
