E-invoicing in Italy

In Italy, it's mandatory for all sales invoices (B2B, B2G, B2C, and cross-border) to go through an approval process via the local tax authority, kown as SDI. Only upon approval can an e-invoice be transmitted to the buyer. Failure to comply can lead to severe penalties for both local and foreign companies.
