ATECO Codes – Repair of Computers, Personal and Household Goods, Motor Vehicles, and Motorcycles

Division 95 covers repair and maintenance activities carried out for private customers and households: computers and peripherals, phones and tablets, consumer electronics, domestic appliances, footwear and leather goods, watches and jewellery, and upholstery of soft furnishings. Those who open a VAT number under one of these codes typically work under the flat-rate regime with a 67% profitability coefficient, apply the 15% substitute tax (5% for the first five years), and register with the INPS Craftsmen's Management scheme.

Frequently asked questions

Can someone who repairs phones, PCs, or domestic appliances open a VAT number under the flat-rate regime?
Yes, the activity qualifies for the flat-rate scheme provided previous-year revenue does not exceed €85,000 and no other exclusionary conditions apply (for example a stake in a company or employment income above €30,000). Taxable income is calculated by applying the 67% profitability coefficient to receipts, and the substitute tax and contributions are then paid on that amount.

What profitability coefficient applies to repairs in division 95?
For codes 95 the coefficient is 67%, the rate provided for "other economic activities". In practice, 67% of receipts is treated as taxable income and the remaining 33% is recognised as a flat-rate cost, with no need to document individual expenses. The substitute tax and INPS contributions are both calculated on that taxable income.
Which INPS scheme does a self-employed repair technician register with?
Those who repair computers, smartphones, household appliances, footwear, or watches normally fall under the INPS Craftsmen's Management scheme and must also register with the Chamber of Commerce. Contributions are partly fixed (around €4,400–4,600 per year on the minimum income threshold) and partly calculated at 24% on the portion of income above that threshold. Under the flat-rate scheme you can request a 35% reduction on contributions by submitting an application to INPS.
