Italy’s Chambers of Commerce portal has implemented PagoPA, an electronic payment solution developed by the country’s Agency for the Digitalisation of the Public Sector (Agenzia per l'Italia Digitale, AGID). The overhaul of the portal was unveiled at the end of May. The portal makes it easier for companies to pay their annual registration fees, while lowering costs.
The new portal, Il Diritto Annuale Camerale, is part of the country’s national business registry. The public administration shares information on just over 6 million companies, 10 million trustees, 1.2 million independent professionals and 900,000 accountants.
Using PagoPA makes electronic payments safe and reliable, AGID writes. Following the government’s Digital Agenda, implementation of the payment system is made mandatory for all of Italy’s public administrations.
According to AGID, the Chambers of Commerce are busy implementing SPID, Italy’s eID system.
