Complex transfer pricing examinations in Italy can lead to complications and risks for multinational enterprises. These audits may result in claims of a hidden permanent establishment or the creation of new transactions involving embedded royalties for intellectual property, along with associated local withholding tax liabilities.

To manage these challenges, companies need to identify the tax authorities' intentions early and develop effective audit management strategies. Understanding options for dispute prevention and resolution is also important. Despite the challenges, the Italian competent authority has successfully resolved advance pricing agreements (APAs) in recent years, providing a pathway for companies to navigate these complex audits.
