Frequently asked questions about registering as self-employed
A Partita IVA is a tax identification number you need to work independently on an ongoing basis.
You need it, for example, to issue invoices, declare your earnings and pay taxes and contributions correctly.
You generally need to register for VAT if you work for yourself on a regular, ongoing basis.
This applies to professionals, freelancers, tradespeople, retailers and anyone starting their own business.
Not sure if you need to register? Etnopoint can help you find out.
The right tax regime depends on your business, your revenue and your personal circumstances.
The most common include:
- Flat-rate tax scheme, available to many small businesses and self-employed professionals who meet the requirements.
- Standard tax regime, used when the flat-rate scheme is unavailable or not the best option.
Etnopoint can help you find the right tax regime for your business.
The cost depends on your type of business, tax regime and any contributions you need to pay.

It depends on the type of work you do.
Many self-employed people must register with an INPS social security scheme. Some professions have a dedicated pension fund instead.
Etnopoint can help you understand which registrations you need and what contributions you’ll have to pay.
In most cases, VAT-registered businesses must issue electronic invoices.
You prepare the invoice digitally and send it through the Exchange System (SdI).
Etnopoint can help you handle invoicing correctly for your business.
The taxes you pay depend on your tax regime, your income and the type of work you do.
Typically, these may include:
- Income tax
- Social security contributions
- VAT, if applicable under your tax regime
The amounts vary from case to case.
Etnopoint can help you understand which taxes and contributions apply to you.
