:::warning Current status (May 2026) — SDI submission in sandbox/mock
- FatturaPA 1.2.2 XML generation + XAdES-BES signing + download: production. The XML is ready for **manual upload to SDI**.
- **Automated SDI submission**: in development (Q3 2026) — requires accreditation with the Agenzia delle Entrate as an intermediary plus PEC certificate provisioning (Aruba or Namirial), **not yet provisioned in production**. Automated dispatch and SDI notifiche tracking are on the roadmap.
:::

## What standard applies?
FatturaPA 1.2.2 — Italy's only official format, mandatory for all transactions (B2G, B2B, B2C). XML with Agenzia delle Entrate schema. Transmitted exclusively through SDI (Sistema di Interscambio).

## Who is affected and when?
B2G: mandatory since 2015. B2B and B2C: mandatory since January 2019 — Italy was Europe's first country to mandate universal e-invoicing. All companies with Italian establishment, including flat-rate (forfettario) regime since 2024.

## How Frihet helps
Frihet generates submission-ready FatturaPA 1.2.2 XML (VAT natures, regimes, document types) and applies XAdES-BES signatures.

### Current capability
- FatturaPA 1.2.2 XML generation and XAdES-BES signing — fully supported today
- Download signed XML from the invoice actions menu
- Automatic Italian customer detection + Codice Destinatario
- Manual upload to SDI via your chosen intermediary (accountant, accredited dispatch software, or the Fatture e Corrispettivi portal)

### Roadmap (Q3 2026)
- Automated **SDI submission** (Sistema di Interscambio) — requires Frihet's accreditation as an intermediario with the Agenzia delle Entrate plus PEC certificate provisioning with Aruba or Namirial, still pending
- SDI status tracking (consegnata, non consegnata, accettata/rifiutata)
- Conservazione sostitutiva (10-year) with a certified provider — not yet active; XML files are stored in european infrastructure

Until Q3 2026: download the signed XML from Frihet and submit via your PEC intermediary (Aruba, Namirial) or the Agenzia delle Entrate web portal.
