Data Sources

Italy uses two data sources that both access the Registro Imprese (Italian Business Register), the official economic registry managed by the Italian Chambers of Commerce. For a given entity, data comes from a single primary source — the system does not merge attributes across sources. It follows a deterministic priority chain and returns data from the first source that provides complete information.

Commercial companies

Registro Imprese — The official economic register managed by the Italian Chambers of Commerce. This is the primary source for comprehensive company data: company name, legal form, status, identifiers, registered address, share capital, ATECO activity codes, legal representatives, shareholders, subsidiaries, employees, and financial information when available.
Fast profile source — Used for search operations and onboarding profiles when a faster response is required. See Verification vs onboarding mode for how to decide whether the fast response is sufficient for your use case.

Sole entrepreneurs

Sole proprietor records — For sole proprietorships (Impresa Individuale), query using the owner’s personal Codice Fiscale. The response contains business name, address, ATECO codes, and owner information when available.

Verification and onboarding may use different source paths. Use the authoritative flag in dataStatus to decide whether to trigger a verification follow-up after onboarding.

Data Source Priority & Routing

For a given company query, data comes from one source only (all-or-nothing model):

Official register data is used for verification-mode company, legal representative, shareholder, establishment, and subsidiary datapoints.
Fast-source data is used for onboarding where available.
Sole proprietors must be queried with their personal Codice Fiscale.

Company Identifiers

Query Identifiers

Identifier	Format	Example	Notes
Codice Fiscale (company)	11 digits, last is a control digit	`00484960588`	Universal fiscal identifier; for companies, typically identical to Partita IVA
Partita IVA (VAT number)	11 digits	`00484960588`	Required for commercial activities; usually identical to Codice Fiscale for companies
Codice Fiscale (individual)	16 alphanumeric	`RSSMRA85M01H501Z`	Personal tax code for sole proprietors; encodes name, birth date, and place
CCIAA + REA Code	2 letters + 1-7 digits	`TO1239673`	Provincial register identifier (CCIAA = Chamber province, REA = register number). Accepted by `/v2/search` only

Primary Identifier: The system uses Codice Fiscale as the company ID for all Italian entities. For companies (SRL, SPA, etc.), the 11-digit Codice Fiscale is typically identical to their Partita IVA. For sole proprietors, the 16-character personal Codice Fiscale must be used — they cannot be queried by their 11-digit VAT number.

/v2/company accepts the Codice Fiscale only. The id must be either an 11-digit Codice Fiscale with a valid control digit (00484960588, optionally written IT00484960588), or a 16-character personal Codice Fiscale for a sole proprietor. Whitespace, dots and hyphens around an 11-digit number are accepted and stripped, and the value is stored and echoed back in its bare, uppercase form.Anything else is rejected immediately with 400 invalid_request, before any register lookup, and is not billed. That includes a REA or CCIAA + REA code (RM-1734032), a sole proprietor’s Partita IVA, and an 11-digit number whose control digit does not check out. Pass these to /v2/search instead: it resolves them to the Codice Fiscale to use here.

VAT (Partita IVA) Validation

For verification-mode company lookups, the response includes a taxId block: the Partita IVA plus a verification object that records how the number was checked and by which authority. The Partita IVA is taken from the official register (for sole proprietors, whose Partita IVA differs from their Codice Fiscale, it is resolved automatically), then validated in two steps:

VIES (EU). The number is checked against the EU VAT Information Exchange System. If it is registered for intra-EU trade, VIES returns a consultation number that is legal proof of the check, and verification.source is vies.
Agenzia delle Entrate (domestic). Most Italian VAT numbers are not enabled for intra-EU trade, so VIES reports them as not valid even when they are perfectly active in Italy. When VIES does not confirm a number, it is checked against the Italian Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate), the authoritative source for domestic VAT status. A number confirmed there has verification.source set to agenzia_entrate.

If neither source confirms the number, verification.status is unverified. A company being active in the business register is never treated as a substitute for validating its VAT number.

Field	Description
`taxId.value`	The 11-digit Partita IVA (without the `IT` prefix)
`taxId.verification.status`	`verified` or `unverified`
`taxId.verification.source`	`vies` or `agenzia_entrate`: which authority confirmed the number
`taxId.verification.consultationNumber`	VIES legal-proof reference, present only when `source` is `vies`
`taxId.verification.verifiedName`	Name held by the validating authority for that number

A vies result is the strongest proof for intra-EU transactions because it carries a consultation number. An agenzia_entrate result confirms the number is active for domestic purposes but has no intra-EU consultation number.

Search Capabilities

Search automatically detects the identifier type and routes to the appropriate endpoint:

Search Pattern	Format	Examples	Match Type	Results
Company Name	Text string	`Barilla`, `Zona Web`	Fuzzy match	Up to 10 results
CCIAA + REA	2 letters + 1-7 digits	`TO1239673`, `TO 1239673`	Exact match by province	Exact match returned first (matchType: id); other results may follow
REA Only	1-7 digits (not 11)	`1239673`, `12345`	Cross-province + name search	Multiple results
Partita IVA	11 digits	`01234567890`, `IT01234567890`	Exact ID match	Exact match returned first (matchType: id); other results may follow
Codice Fiscale (company)	11 digits	`03943150270`	Exact ID match	Exact match returned first (matchType: id); other results may follow
Codice Fiscale (individual)	16 alphanumeric	`RSSMRA85M01H501Z`	Exact ID match	Exact match returned first (matchType: id); other results may follow

REA numbers are unique within a province but can exist in multiple provinces. Searching by REA only (without CCIAA) performs both a cross-province REA search and a company name search simultaneously, then combines and deduplicates the results.

Search is powered by the OpenAPI IT-search and IT-name endpoints. Name searches use fuzzy matching with up to 10 results. ID searches (Codice Fiscale, Partita IVA) return exact matches. The IT prefix on identifiers is automatically stripped.

Quirks & Gotchas

Quirk	Details
Codice Fiscale = Partita IVA for companies	For companies (SRL, SPA, etc.), the 11-digit Codice Fiscale is usually identical to the Partita IVA. For sole proprietors, they are always different.
Sole proprietors need personal Codice Fiscale	Sole proprietorships (Impresa Individuale) must be queried using their 16-character personal Codice Fiscale, not their 11-digit Partita IVA. Querying with Partita IVA returns a not-found error with a hint to use the correct identifier.
IT prefix is optional	The `IT` prefix on Partita IVA / Codice Fiscale is automatically stripped. Both `IT00484960588` and `00484960588` work, and both are stored under the same bare id. The prefix is only removed when what remains is an 11-digit number, so a personal Codice Fiscale that happens to start `IT` is left intact.
A REA code is not a company id	`/v2/company` rejects a REA or CCIAA + REA code with `400 invalid_request` rather than searching for it. Resolve it through `/v2/search` first.
REA is province-scoped	REA numbers are unique within a province but can exist in multiple provinces. Always pair with CCIAA code for exact identification.
Legal rep roles are AI-enriched	The local Italian role name is always preserved verbatim. The standardized role mapping and English translation use AI enrichment.
ISIC and NACE are AI-inferred	All ATECO, RAE, SAE, and SIC codes are official registry data. Only ISIC and NACE are derived via AI. Check the `isAIInferred` flag.
ATECO code lengths vary	ATECO codes range from 2 to 6 digits depending on the granularity of the registered activity. There is no universal logic for code length.
Shareholder birth data cross-reference	InfoCamere’s SOC block does not include birth date/place for shareholders. The system cross-references by fiscal code with legal representative data to enrich shareholders with birth information where available.
SOC block may fail for cooperatives	The shareholder (SOC) block can return 400 errors for certain company types (e.g., cooperatives). In this case, the profile is returned without shareholder data rather than failing entirely.
Document delivery is asynchronous	Visura and bilancio documents are ordered from InfoCamere and then polled for availability. Estimated delivery time is 5 minutes (300 seconds).
Bilancio documents are historical	Financial statement documents never change once filed. They are deduplicated permanently since they never change.

Mappings

Company Status

Company status is determined deterministically from Italian registry status codes. No AI inference is involved.

Code	Local Status	English Translation	Standardized Status
`A`	Attiva	Active	`ACTIVE`
`C`	Cessata	Ceased	`CLOSED`
`CF`	Out of business	Out of Business	`CLOSED`
`CS`	Out of business	Out of Business	`CLOSED`
`I`	Inactive	Inactive	`UNKNOWN`
`IF`	In closure	In Closure	`UNDER_INSOLVENCY_PROCEEDING`
`IS`	In closure	In Closure	`UNDER_INSOLVENCY_PROCEEDING`
`S`	Dormant	Dormant	`UNKNOWN`

Status codes come from two sources: InfoCamere provides a simple A (active) / C (ceased) classification, while OpenAPI provides more granular codes (CF, CS, I, IF, IS, S). The richer code set is used when available. Unknown codes default to UNKNOWN status.

Legal Forms

Italy has 70+ official legal form classifications managed by the Chambers of Commerce. Legal form mapping uses a deterministic code-to-description lookup for Italian names and a static dictionary for English translations. When no deterministic match is found, AI enrichment is used to translate and standardize the legal form, and to assign the ISO 20275 (ELF) code.

ISO 20275 (ELF) codes are assigned via AI enrichment. The most common forms (SRL = V9QP, SPA = 8888) have well-established mappings. Less common forms may not have assigned ELF codes.

Legal Representatives

Legal representatives are extracted from InfoCamere (AMM/ALB XML blocks) and OpenAPI (IT-full endpoint with isLegalRepresentative: true). Role standardization uses AI enrichment — the local Italian role name is always preserved verbatim. Both individuals and corporate entities can hold legal representative roles.

Executive & Management Roles

Italian Role	English Translation
Amministratore unico	Sole Director
Amministratore delegato	Managing Director / CEO
Amministratore	Director
Presidente del consiglio di amministrazione	Chairman of the Board
Consigliere delegato	Executive Board Member
Consigliere	Board Member
Socio amministratore	Managing Partner
Presidente	President / Chairman
Vice presidente	Vice President
Direttore generale	General Manager
Titolare	Owner

Representative & Legal Roles

Italian Role	English Translation
Rappresentante legale	Legal Representative
Procuratore	Attorney / Proxy
Procuratore speciale	Special Attorney
Institore	Business Manager (Institor)
Liquidatore	Liquidator

Partnership & Cooperative Roles

Italian Role	English Translation
Socio accomandatario	General Partner (unlimited liability)
Socio accomandante	Limited Partner
Socio unico	Sole Shareholder

Role mapping is AI-enriched. The local Italian role name from the registry is always preserved as localName. The englishTranslation and standardized fields are generated by AI. Since the Italian registry uses free-text role descriptions rather than a fixed codelist, the set of possible roles is open-ended.

Other Key Persons

Other key persons are extracted from the OpenAPI IT-full endpoint when the isLegalRepresentative flag is false. These are persons associated with the company who do not have statutory authority to bind the company.

Italian Role	English Translation
Sindaco	Statutory Auditor
Sindaco effettivo	Effective Statutory Auditor
Sindaco supplente	Alternate Statutory Auditor
Presidente del collegio sindacale	Chairman of the Board of Auditors
Revisore legale	Legal Auditor
Revisore contabile	Accounting Auditor
Membro del collegio sindacale	Member of the Board of Auditors

Other key persons are only available through the OpenAPI IT-full data source (used for onboarding profiles). InfoCamere blocchi data returns all persons in a single list without the isLegalRepresentative distinction. Both individuals and corporate entities can appear as other key persons.

Shareholders

Shareholders are extracted from both InfoCamere (SOC block) and OpenAPI (IT-full endpoint). Both individual and corporate shareholders are supported. Extraction Logic:

Source	When Used	Data Extracted
InfoCamere SOC block	Primary source (non-cooperative companies)	Shareholders with ownership percentages, nominal capital held, paid-in amounts, fiscal codes, addresses, country codes
OpenAPI IT-full	Fallback / onboarding profile	Shareholders with ownership percentages, fiscal codes
Person Card (sole proprietors)	Sole proprietorship queries	Owner as 100% shareholder

Ownership Fields:

Field	Description	InfoCamere	OpenAPI
`sharePercentage`	Ownership percentage	Yes	Yes
`nominalCapitalHeld`	Nominal capital amount held (EUR)	Yes	No
`paidInAmount`	Amount of capital paid in (EUR)	Yes	No
`type`	`INDIVIDUAL` or `COMPANY`	Yes	Yes
`individual.identifiers`	Codice Fiscale of shareholder	Yes	Yes
`company.countryCode`	Country code for foreign corporate shareholders	Yes	No

The InfoCamere SOC block does not include birth date/place for shareholders. When a shareholder is also a legal representative (common in small Italian companies), the system cross-references by fiscal code and copies birth information from the legal representative record to enrich the shareholder data.

The SOC block can fail with a 400 error for certain company types (e.g., cooperatives). In this case, the company profile is returned without shareholder data rather than failing the entire request.

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are the inverse of shareholders: companies in which the queried company holds equity. For Italy they are extracted from the InfoCamere PAS block (“Storia delle partecipazioni in altre societa’”). Fields populated:

Field	Description
`company.legalName`	Subsidiary’s legal name
`company.id`	Subsidiary’s Codice Fiscale
`sharePercentage`	Direct equity stake (0–100)
`numberOfShares`	Share or quota count held
`nominalCapitalHeld`	Total nominal value held (EUR)
`acquisitionDate`	Earliest date the participation was recorded
`endDate`	Set when the subsidiary has been cancelled or the holding ended

The PAS block is skipped for sole proprietorships. Historical transfers are not surfaced in v1; only currently-held participations. See Subsidiaries for the universal contract.

Activity Code Mapping

Italy uses the ATECO (Attivita Economiche) classification system, maintained by ISTAT (Italian National Institute of Statistics). The ATECO 2025 classification, effective from April 1, 2025, aligns with the EU’s NACE Rev. 2.1 system and has 6 levels of classification depth. Classification pipeline:

ATECO (Italian) → NACE (European, AI-inferred) → ISIC (International, AI-inferred)

Available classifications in API responses:

Classification	Source	AI-Inferred	Notes
ATECO2025	Registry (InfoCamere)	No	Latest Italian standard; primary and secondary codes
ATECO2022	Registry (OpenAPI)	No	Previous Italian standard
RAE	Registry (OpenAPI IT-full)	No	Italian Economic Administrative Register (single code)
SAE	Registry (OpenAPI IT-full)	No	Italian Statistical Administrative classification (single code)
SIC	Registry (OpenAPI IT-full)	No	US Standard Industrial Classification (single code)
NACE	AI-enriched	Yes	European standard, derived from highest-priority ATECO code
ISIC	AI-enriched	Yes	International standard, derived from highest-priority ATECO code

ISIC/NACE Generation Priority:

Primary ATECO2025 code (if available)
Primary ATECO2022 code (if ATECO2025 unavailable)
RAE code (if no ATECO codes available)
SAE code (if no other codes available)

ATECO code lengths vary from 2 to 6 digits depending on the granularity of the registered activity. There is no universal logic for code length. InfoCamere (primary source) typically provides ATECO2025 codes with NACE derivations. OpenAPI (fallback) provides ATECO2022 codes.
