FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the VAT advance payment

What is the difference between the historical and forecast method?

The historical method calculates the advance as 88% of the VAT paid in the same period of the previous year. The forecast method calculates 88% of the VAT expected to be due for the current period: it is convenient when a drop in turnover is expected, but if the payment turns out to be insufficient penalties apply.

When is the VAT advance not due?

The VAT advance is not due when the calculated amount is below €103.29. It is also not due by those who did not pay VAT in the reference period of the previous year, by those who cease their activity, or by taxpayers under the flat-rate scheme.

What is the deadline for paying the VAT advance?

The VAT advance must be paid by December 27 of each year via the F24 form, using tax codes 6013 (monthly taxpayers) or 6035 (quarterly taxpayers). The amount is then deducted from the annual VAT balance.

How is the VAT advance worked out with the historical method?

With the historical method the advance is 88% of the VAT paid for the same period of the previous year. You enter that amount as the base and the tool returns the figure to pay.

Below what amount is the VAT advance not paid?

The VAT advance is not due when the amount worked out stays below 103.29 euro. The tool flags the case as soon as the result drops under that floor, so you can see at once whether to pay.

When is the Italian VAT advance due?

The advance is paid by 27 December on form F24, tax code 6013 for monthly filers and 6035 for quarterly ones. The amount is then set against the VAT balance for the year.

Does my data stay private?

Yes, and not because we promise it: this tool runs entirely inside your browser. What you type or upload never leaves your device, so it never reaches a server of ours and there is nothing we could keep, read or lose. You can check it yourself: open the page, disconnect from the internet, and the tool keeps working.

Do you store what I enter?

No. There is no database behind this tool: we do not store your files, your text or your results. When you close the tab nothing is left — not here with us, because it never arrived, and not anywhere else.

Do you profile me? Are you GDPR compliant?

We do not profile you: there is no account to create, we never ask for your email to use a tool, and we keep no profile of what you do. We are an Italian company and we work under the GDPR and the other European rules, with the privacy notice and the consent request in plain sight. One thing we say in full rather than hiding it behind a slogan: the ads on the page are Google's, and Google may use cookies to personalise them. You decide from the consent banner: if you say no the ads stay, but they are not personalised, and the tool works exactly the same.

If it is free, how do you make money?

From the ads on the page, and that is all. We do not sell your data, there is no hidden paid plan, there is no limit that eventually asks for your card, and you do not have to sign up. The ads pay for the servers and for the time we spend writing the tools: that is how we can keep them open to everyone.
