From Tax Code to Personal Details

Following the decree of Italian President of the Republic, 29 September 1973, n.605 the tax code was introduced in Italy. The tax code is the code used to identify on tax registry natural persons, legal persons, companies and associations.

The tax code is an alphanumeric code consisting of 16 digits XYZ.XYZ.00.X.00.X000.X thus divided:

• XYZ - 3 alphabetic characters for the surname
• XYZ - 3 alphabetic characters for the name
• 00 - 2 digits for the birth year
• X - 1 alphabetic character for the birth month
• 00 - 2 digits for sex and birth day
• x000 - 4 characters (one numeric and 3 alphabetic) for the Italian birth country or outside Italy state
• X - 1 alphabetic check character

The algorithm or coding system is defined by Italian Ministerial Decree, 23 December 1976


Warning: remember that the tax code can be generated only by the Italian Ministry of Finance that can manage the cases of equality of the tax code (omocodia) between different people too. The code calculated here, although it agrees with official calculation algorithm, is therefore to be considered ONLY PRESUMED
