Road fines and car tax arrears can only be included in the Scrappage-quinquies under two conditions: the debt must comply with the time requirements established by law and the creditor local body must have formally agreed to the measure. In this regard, the Revenue Agency has published on its website the list of approximately 1,500 Municipalities and Regions that have confirmed their membership.
“Scrapping” a file obviously does not mean canceling the debt. It means being able to close by paying what is due with a discount on some sums added over time. For traffic fines, in particular, the amount of the fine remains to be paid: the relief concerns the interest and sums accrued as premiums. For taxes, such as car tax, the penalties and interest provided for by the facilitated definition can also be excluded from payment. The concrete savings depend on the composition of the individual folder.
How to understand if your folder can be scrapped
The first check concerns the creditor body: it must appear in the list published by the Revenue Agency. The table shows the name of the entity, any third parties who have entrusted the debts to the Agency on its behalf and, in some cases, additional information in the “notes” field.
The presence of the organization on the list does not automatically make every unpaid fine or tax scrappable. The measure concerns the loads entrusted to the Revenue Agency-Collection from 1 January 2000 to 31 December 2023. The list includes the entities that have decided to apply it to their revenues, but the taxpayer will have to verify that his specific debt also falls among those definable. Debts resulting from convictions by the Court of Auditors are excluded.
The same measure can also concern other local revenues, such as Imu and Tari, when the requirements are met. However, there is a common limit to all these debts: the procedure only concerns those entrusted to the Revenue Agency-Collection. It does not include sums collected directly by the institution or entrusted to private dealers. For the latter, the 2026 Budget Law allows local authorities to introduce their own forms of facilitated definition, with autonomous rules.
The dates to apply and pay
The application can be submitted online from 16 October to 15 December 2026. By 15 October, the Agency will publish the instructions for sending it on its website and will make the data necessary to identify the folders that may fall within the facilitated definition available in the reserved area.
Those who join will receive communication with the amount to be paid by 28 February 2027. You can pay it in a single payment by 31 March 2027 or choose up to 54 bimonthly installments of the same amount. The list of local authorities can be consulted at this link.
