Fiscal Code (Codice Fiscale)

If you are already in Pisa, to obtain your tax code you can send an email to the Pisa Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate di Pisa), e-mail: dp.pisa.utpisa@agenziaentrate.it, specifying that you are a student enrolled at the University of Pisa, and attach to the email the following:

  1. copy of the passport;
  2. copy of the visa;
  3. the enclosed application form (Tax code modello) duly filled.

Attention: the only official tax code is the one issued by the Revenue Agency (Agenzia delle Entrate) or by the Italian Embassies. The tax code generated by ALICE is not official.

If you get an appointment, please bring your passport (or identity card if EU citizen) and a copy of it (just the pages with your personal data) to the Agenzia delle Entrate, via Matteucci 34, Galleria Gerace 7/15.

To arrive to the Agenzia, if you are at the main train station, take a bus called LAM ROSSA and get off at the bus stop called “MEDIAWORLD”, which is the name of a large shop nearby the tax code office.

It is necessary to have a tax code card in order to access the services of public entities (e.g.: to enroll at the University and the National Health Service), to enter into a contract (e.g.: employment or rent), to open a bank account, but also to buy a phone card.
