Three specialists, one country. Each owns one part of the work, writes the pages on it, and checks the pages of one of the others.

Three specialists, one country, one set of registers

Every page names its author and the person who checked it

Review runs in a ring, so nobody checks their own work

No personal addresses: one form and one inbox

Who writes this site

All three work for ItalRegist Pro, trading as Company in Italy, from the office at Via Dante Alighieri 24, 20123 Milano MI, Italy. Reaching any of them goes through info@company-in-italy.com or +39 02 555 9876: none of them publishes a direct line, because an enquiry should land with whoever the subject belongs to rather than with whoever was named first.

The site is written by the people who do the work, not by a content department. Each page carries the name of its author and of the second person who checked it, so that there is always somebody answerable for what is on it. None of us is contactable by a personal address: everything runs through one form and one inbox, which is how nothing gets lost between three people in two cities.

Giulia Mancini

Portrait of Giulia Mancini, Head of Corporate Formation
  • Role Head of Corporate Formation
  • Office Milan
  • In practice 12 years
  • Languages Italian (native), English (fluent)

Specialisation. incorporating an S.r.l. or S.p.A. for non-residents, remote incorporation by videoconference, transferring quote (the units of an S.r.l.) when a ready-made company is bought, branches and subsidiaries, filing with the Registro delle Imprese.

Giulia Mancini leads company formation for founders who are not resident in Italy. She started out preparing incorporation deeds in a Milan notary practice and has spent twelve years on the same problem since. Most weeks she is reconciling what a foreign shareholder can sign remotely with what the notary and the Register of Companies will actually accept.

Pages written and kept up to date by Giulia include S.r.l. in Italy, ready-made companies and the Italian business register. Full profile: Giulia Mancini.

Alessandro Ferri

Portrait of Alessandro Ferri, Tax and Accounting Lead
  • Role Tax and Accounting Lead
  • Office Rome
  • In practice 14 years
  • Languages Italian (native), English (fluent)

Specialisation. IRES and IRAP, VAT and partita IVA for non-residents, electronic invoicing through the SDI, annual accounts and filing the bilancio, the regimes for new residents, corporate tax residence and esterovestizione (a foreign company treated as Italian for tax).

Alessandro Ferri handles the tax side: what an Italian company owes, when, and on which form. He spent his first four years filing Redditi SC and IRAP returns in a Rome practice, which is where he learned how much of the work is deadlines rather than rates. He now advises foreign owners on IRES, VAT registration and the reporting that follows incorporation.

Pages written and kept up to date by Alessandro include corporate tax in Italy, the Italian VAT number and accounting services. Full profile: Alessandro Ferri.

Marta De Luca

Portrait of Marta De Luca, Regulatory and Licensing Lead
  • Role Regulatory and Licensing Lead
  • Office Milan
  • In practice 10 years
  • Languages Italian (native), English (fluent)

Specialisation. CASP authorisation under MiCA, payment institutions and IMELs supervised by Banca d'Italia, the beneficial owner register, nominee services and substance, UIBM trade marks, and the visa routes open to a founder.

Marta De Luca works on authorisations: who has to be licensed in Italy, by which authority, and what the file has to contain. Four years inside the compliance function of an Italian payment institution taught her what a supervisor actually reads. She now takes crypto-asset and payment applicants through CONSOB and Banca d'Italia procedures.

Pages written and kept up to date by Marta include the crypto licence, payment and e-money institutions and the Italy startup visa. Full profile: Marta De Luca.

How we divide the work

The split follows the shape of the work rather than the shape of an org chart.

Table 1. Who owns which part of a matter, and who checks whose pages. Review runs in a ring, so nobody checks their own work.
Person Owns Checks the pages of
Giulia Mancini Bringing a company into existence and keeping it correct at the register: the form of company, the deed, the filings, a ready-made company changing hands Marta
Alessandro Ferri Everything the company then owes and reports: the identifiers, the returns, the invoicing, the accounts Giulia
Marta De Luca Everything that needs somebody's permission before it can start: a licence, an authorisation, a trade mark, a visa Alessandro

A single matter usually crosses all three. A crypto business, for instance, is Giulia's S.r.l., Marta's MiCA file and Alessandro's VAT registration and reporting, in that order, and the order matters more than most people expect.

What none of us claims

No Italian professional titles

None of the three uses an Italian professional title, and none of us claims membership of an Italian professional order. In Italy those are matters of open public register, which means a claim to one is confirmed or disproved in about a minute, and a site that makes one loosely is telling you something about the rest of its content.

What we do claim

Something narrower and checkable against the work itself: the roles above, the years in practice, the subjects each of us handles every week, and the languages we work in. Where a matter has to be done by a notary or by a registered professional, it is done by one, and we say when it has been.

No awards, rankings or client names

If you want to know how we work before committing to anything, read a page: S.r.l. in Italy and corporate tax in Italy are the two that show the method most clearly.
