Decreto Legislativo 231/2002 transposed EU Directive 2011/7 with statutory late-payment interest at the ECB rate plus 8 percentage points and a 40 EUR fixed compensation per overdue invoice. The Late Payment Interest Calculator handles the interest math; the Invoice Due Date Calculator stages 30 and 60-day payment terms against the festività nazionali calendar.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which holidays are included for Italy?

The calculator preselects festività nazionali for Italy sourced from Legge 27 maggio 1949, n. 260 e Codice Civile italiano. The list and 2024-2029 dates are summarised on this page. Use the Advanced options to layer any regional or industry-specific dates that apply to a particular contract.

What is the Italy workweek?

Italy's working week runs with a sabato and domenica weekend. The calculator excludes both weekend days and the listed public holidays from the working-day count.

Is Santo Stefano (December 26) observed as a national holiday in Italy?

Yes. Santo Stefano (December 26) is a national festività in Italy alongside Natale (December 25). Both close banks, Borsa Italiana, and most private-sector employers. The Italian national set differs from many other countries by including December 26 universally as a public holiday, alongside Catholic-rooted dates such as Immacolata Concezione (December 8) and Ognissanti (November 1) that are also fully national.

How does the Festa del Patrono affect this national calendar?

Each Italian municipality observes its own Festa del Patrono (patron saint's day): San Giovanni Battista in Florence on June 24, San Petronio in Bologna on October 4, Sant'Ambrogio in Milan on December 7, and others. These are local holidays that close municipal offices, schools, and some businesses in their respective cities but are not in this national set. For Milan-, Rome-, or Florence-specific contracts, layer the municipal patron-saint date under the calculator's Advanced options.
