Complaint to a phone, internet or pay-TV operator (Italy)
For anyone in Italy with a landline, mobile, internet or pay-TV contract who disputes a bill, a charge never asked for, a fault, a slow line or a botched switch to another operator: the written complaint to the operator is the first step, and the operator must answer within 45 days. If the answer does not satisfy you, conciliation on AGCOM’s ConciliaWeb platform, through your region’s CORECOM, is free, online and compulsory before going to court. Send this Italian letter by PEC to the operator’s certified address or by registered post with proof of receipt; the complaints channel in the service charter also counts.
Minutes of an S.r.l. members' meeting appointing or removing a director (Italy)
For the members of an Italian S.r.l. appointing or removing the sole director or a board member: the minutes in Italian of the meeting, with chair and secretary, the call or a fully attended meeting, members present and their holdings, the vote, the director's details, term and pay, and the acceptance of office signed by the person appointed. No notary is needed; the appointment must be entered in the Companies Register within thirty days (art. 2383 of the Italian Civil Code) through the Comunicazione unica. The majorities are those in the articles or, failing them, art. 2479-bis.
Notice of revocation of a power of attorney to a bank, the post office or others (Italy)
For anyone who has revoked a power of attorney and must warn the bank, Poste Italiane, the condominium, an office or anyone else the agent dealt with. Until third parties know of the revocation, the agent’s acts can still bind you towards those acting in good faith (article 1396 of the Italian Civil Code). The letter identifies the agent and the power, asks the recipient to stop accepting the agent’s requests and to confirm receipt. Send it by PEC or recorded delivery, one per third party. Many banks also have their own form.
Revocation of a SEPA direct debit, formerly RID (Italy)
Many banks let you revoke a direct debit free of charge in online banking or at the branch. This document, in Italian under Italian law, is for doing it in writing, with proof: it holds two letters to send on the same day, one to the creditor revoking the SEPA mandate and one to your bank asking it to stop executing that creditor's debits (legislative decree no. 11/2010). Revocation does not cancel sums owed: the letter asks how to pay them another way.
Notice cancelling an insurance policy (Italy)
For anyone in Italy who wants to end an insurance policy – home, accident, liability, health – at expiry so that it does not renew tacitly, or to withdraw from a policy lasting more than five years once five years have passed (Article 1899 of the Italian Civil Code). The notice period is the one the policy sets and counts from receipt of the letter. Motor liability insurance, by contrast, needs no notice: it never renews tacitly. Many insurers also accept cancellation free of charge from the customer area or through the agent. Send this Italian letter by PEC to the insurer’s certified address or by registered post with proof of receipt.
General power of attorney as a private writing (Italy)
For anyone who wants a trusted person to handle their everyday affairs: paying bills and taxes, collecting money, picking up documents, dealing with the building’s condominium and with offices. Under Italian law a private power covers only ordinary administration and the acts expressly listed; selling or buying property, a gift or any act to be registered needs a notarial power. Banks and Poste Italiane may ask for their own forms. Signed by the principal and accepted by the agent.
Written complaint to an electricity, gas or water supplier (Italy)
For anyone in Italy with an electricity, gas or water contract who disputes a bill, a catch-up charge, a wrong meter reading or a poor service: the written complaint to the supplier or water operator is the first, free step, and without it the conciliation procedure is not open. For electricity and gas the supplier must give a reasoned reply within 30 days; if it does not satisfy you, the ARERA conciliation service is free, online and compulsory before going to court. The supplier also offers its own complaint form. Send this Italian letter by PEC to the supplier’s certified address or by registered post with proof of receipt.
Saldo e stralcio settlement offer to a creditor (Italy)
For anyone in Italy with a debt to a private person, a business, a finance company or a debt-collection agency who wants to propose closing it by paying a smaller sum, at once or in instalments. The letter, in Italian under Italian law, states the debt claimed, the amount offered, how it will be paid and how long the offer stands, and says payment will follow only written acceptance. It is not for tax bills from the Agenzia delle Entrate-Riscossione. Send it by registered post or by PEC.
Self-employed work contract for freelancers (Italy)
For a business or individual giving an assignment to a self-employed worker in Italy, with or without a VAT number: an Italian contract covering scope, the worker's freedom to organise time and place, duration, fee, payment within 60 days at most, withdrawal on fair notice and changes only in writing, as the Italian Self-Employment Act (Law 81/2017) requires. For a worker without a VAT number it refers to the occasional-work receipt and withholding tax. Withdrawal is specifically approved (art. 1341 of the Civil Code). Signed in two copies or digitally.
Proposal to end employment by mutual agreement (Italy)
For a private-sector employee in Italy proposing to the employer that the job end by mutual agreement, on a date and on the terms asked for. The letter is only the proposal: the agreement takes effect if it is then made, free of charge, through the Ministry of Labour's online procedure or signed in a protected setting such as the labour inspectorate or a union office. After a termination by agreement, NASpI unemployment benefit is due only in special cases. Sent by registered post, PEC or by hand. In Italian.
Individual agile (smart) working agreement (Italy)
For an employer and employee in Italy agreeing smart working within an existing job. The written agreement required by articles 18–23 of Italian Law 81/2017 sets the days and places of agile work, equipment provided, disconnection hours, monitoring, disciplinary conduct, the risk notice, duration and withdrawal on thirty days' notice (ninety for a disabled worker). A private employer then reports it online to the Ministry of Labour, free of charge, within five days of the start. In Italian.
Written complaint to a bank (Italy)
A complaint to the bank costs nothing, and many banks have an online form or a PEC address for their complaints office. This letter, in Italian under Italian law, is for writing it yourself: it describes the problem – an undue charge, an unexpected cost, a service not provided – states what you ask for and, if needed, copies of documents (article 119(4) of the Italian Consolidated Banking Act). It is the step that opens a claim to the Arbitro Bancario Finanziario, filed online for a €20 fee. Send it by registered post or by PEC.
Request for access to administrative documents (Italy)
An Italian request, in Italian, to a public body to see or copy documents of a procedure that concerns you, under articles 22 ff. of Italian law 241/1990: it names the documents, your interest and the type of access. The body answers within 30 days. Many bodies publish a free form. No revenue stamp is needed to view documents or for plain copies; certified copies need one (16 €, from a tobacconist or with @e.bollo), and there is space to affix it. Send it by PEC or hand it in at the office.
Settlement agreement between private parties (Italy)
For ending a dispute in Italy between private persons or with a business – a contested debt, damage, poor work – by mutual concessions, including a settlement for less than the full debt (saldo e stralcio). The contract, in Italian under Italian law, describes the dispute, what each party concedes, any sum and how it is paid, and the waiver of every other claim on that dispute (articles 1965 ff. of the Italian Civil Code). It is not for employment disputes. Both parties sign two copies.
Application to the Prefetto to change a first name or surname (Italy)
For an adult Italian citizen asking to change their surname or first name, or to add one, such as the mother’s surname. The application goes to the Prefetto of the province of residence or of the one holding the birth record (article 89 of Italian Presidential Decree no. 396/2000), with the reasons and the name sought. Many Prefetture publish their own free form: if there is one, you may use it. It needs a € 16 revenue stamp (marca da bollo, from a tobacconist; online via @e.bollo or F24), except for ridiculous or shameful surnames.
Report of hosting a foreign national (Italy)
An Italian written report, in Italian, that anyone who hosts a non-EU foreign national or stateless person, or lets, lends or sells them a property, must file within 48 hours with the local public security authority – the Questura or police station, or the municipality where there is no police office – even for a relative or a few days (art. 7 of Italian legislative decree 286/1998). Many Questure and municipalities have their own free form, some online: use it where it exists. Hand it in against a stamped receipt, or send it by registered post or PEC.
Commercial lease 6+6 (Italy)
For anyone letting or renting a shop, office, workshop or warehouse in Italy for a business or professional activity: an Italian non-residential lease under Law 392/1978, for six years renewable for six, with the permitted use, the rent and its ISTAT update at 75 per cent, service charges, deposit, the tenant's withdrawal, goodwill and the energy certificate clause. Not for hotels (nine years) or temporary activities. It must be registered within 30 days with the Agenzia delle Entrate's form RLI.
Special power of attorney for a single act (Italy)
For anyone who cannot attend and asks a trusted person to carry out one act in their name: signing a contract, collecting a sum, representing them at a condominium meeting or before an office. The Italian power describes the act, its limits and its end date. If the act needs a special form – selling a house or a car, an act to be registered – a notarial power or a notarised signature is required. For a simple errand a delegation (delega) is enough.
Employee confidentiality agreement (Italy)
For an employer and employee in Italy who want confidential information protected after the job ends, when the duty of loyalty under art. 2105 of the Italian Civil Code lapses. The agreement defines the confidential information, how long the duty lasts after the job ends, the exceptions (public information, legal duties, whistleblowing reports) and the return of documents. It is not a non-compete clause: it does not restrict future work and sets no penalty. In Italian.
Request for general civic access (Italian FOIA) (Italy)
An Italian request, in Italian, that anyone can make without giving reasons, for data and documents held by a public body (art. 5(2) of legislative decree 33/2013, Italy’s freedom of information act), within the limits of art. 5-bis. The body answers within 30 days; a refusal can be reviewed by its transparency officer. Release is free apart from the cost of copies on paper or media: no revenue stamp. Many bodies have a free form in their ‘Amministrazione trasparente’ section. Send it by PEC or e-mail.
Notice of sick leave to the employer (Italy)
An Italian letter, in Italian, from an employee telling the employer of an absence for illness: the start date, the end of the doctor’s prognosis, the protocol number (PUC) of the electronic certificate the doctor sent to INPS, and the address where the employee can be reached for the medical check. It is for cases where the collective agreement or the company asks for written notice and offers no portal of its own. Send it by PEC to the company’s certified address, by registered post with proof of receipt, or by hand. It holds health data, so it is sold blank and filled in by hand.
Decision to move the registered office within the same municipality for an S.r.l. (Italy)
For the sole director or board of an Italian S.r.l. whose articles name only the municipality (Comune) as its seat: the decision in Italian moving the registered office to a new address in the same Comune, without a notary (art. 111-ter of the implementing provisions of the Italian Civil Code), with the effective date and the instruction to file the statement with the Companies Register through the digitally signed Comunicazione unica. If the articles give the full address, or the office moves to another Comune, the articles must be amended before a notary, which this document does not cover.
Cancelling a gym membership or another subscription (Italy)
For anyone in Italy who wants to end a subscription – gym, swimming pool, magazine, online service – or stop it renewing: the letter gives notice at expiry, withdraws on the contract’s terms or, if a documented illness or injury prevents you from using the service, asks for termination because performance has become impossible (Articles 1463 and 1464 of the Italian Civil Code). Italy has no specific law on gyms: the contract and the Italian Consumer Code’s rules on unfair terms decide. Many providers state in the contract how to cancel. Send this Italian letter by PEC to the company’s certified address or by registered post with proof of receipt.
Payment reminder for an overdue invoice (Italy)
For a business or professional wanting to remind a client of an overdue invoice before a formal demand: a polite letter in Italian with the invoice number, date and amount, the due date, a request to pay within a few days with the IBAN, and a reminder that between businesses late-payment interest runs anyway from the day after the due date (Legislative Decree 231/2002). If payment is already on its way, it asks the client to disregard it. Sent by e-mail or PEC; if it fails, a formal demand follows.
