Canone Rai

TV fee in the electricity bill: who pays, who is exempt, how to opt out.

When to use

• "canone Rai", "TV licence Italy", "canone in bolletta".
• Do not use for other utility fees.

Workflow

1. Rule: one fee per household with a TV (AdE presumption), charged via electricity bill.
2. Exemptions: over-75 with income limit, diplomats, (year-stated) — declaration to AdE by deadline.
3. No-TV opt-out: dichiarazione di non detenzione (yearly, deadline) — exact path.
4. Double charges (two bills): refund request path.

Rules

• Amount with year (it changed over years — never timeless).
• Exemption income limits with year; verify current.
• Second homes do not double-pay: state the single-household rule.

Examples

See examples/canone-cases.md. Exemption table in references/esenioni.md.

Edge cases

• Deceased holder → voltura/exemption steps for heirs, flag it.
• Missed opt-out deadline → pay + next-year declaration, no retro miracles.
• Rented home → holder is the resident, landlord/tenant split explained.
