Frequently asked questions

I'm registering as self-employed as a chartered accountant (dottore commercialista) — is ATECO 2025 code 69.20.01 correct?
Yes. From 2025, the activities of chartered accountants have the dedicated code 69.20.01. Statutory auditors in accounting have a separate heading, 69.20.02, and accounting technicians have 69.20.03.
Chartered accountant or labour consultant — 69.20.01 or 69.20.04?
It depends on the main focus of the work. Code 69.20.01 is for the chartered accountant who handles bookkeeping, financial statements and tax compliance. Those who manage payroll, employment relationships and social-security obligations for businesses are labour consultants, under 69.20.04.
Chartered accountant or tax assistance provided by a CAF — 69.20.01 or 69.20.07?
These are different activities. Code 69.20.01 is the chartered accountant profession. Tax assistance delivered through a tax assistance centre (CAF) has its own dedicated heading, 69.20.07.
