The invoicing period of the trading fees on the P-GAS is the calendar month.

For each invoicing period, GME issues invoices to P-GAS participants for the trading fees within the sixth working day of the month following the reference month.

With regard to the other fees arising on the P-GAS, GME will issue invoices to each participant:

  1.  for the access fee, within five days of the date of admission;
  2. for the yearly fixed fee, within the third working day of the month following the date of admission, for the first twelve months, and subsequently every twelve months;
  3. for the yearly fixed OMPR P-GAS fee, within the tenth working day of the month following the end of the calendar quarter including the date of admission;
  4. for the variable records-based fee, within the tenth working day of the month of April of each year.

GME will make available its ownl invoices on the "SetService" digital platform. Invoices will be  transmitted through Sistema di Interscambio (SDI), if the legislation applicable from time to time on electronic invoicing and its implementing provisions so require.

TAXATION

GME's fees are classified as generic services. For VAT purposes, it must be checked the place where the customer is established as mentioned in Article 7 ter of the  Decree of the President of the Italian Republic n. 633/72, which implements Article 44 of Directive 2006/112/EC.

Therefore, GME issues an invoice with VAT at the standard rate if the customer is a subject based in Italy, except when the Italian customer is qualified as a "esportatore abituale". In this last case, an invoice without VAT will be issued.

GME issues an invoice without VAT when the customer is a taxable EU Participant in its own country. In this case, it is the Participant that applies the reverse charge mechanism.
In case of a non-EU Participant, GME issues an invoice without VAT.

GME issues an invoice for the fees, with reference to VAT payment system called "split payment", to Participants established in Italy that certify, by submitting a specific self-certification made pursuant to Article 47 of the Decree of the President of the Italian Republic n. 445 of 28/12/00, that split payment can be applied to them.

An example of a declaration for the status of Participant subject to split payment can be found here.
