Activity finder and its tax obligations

This tool provides information on the groups or headings into which the economic activities included in the IAE Rates are classified, as well as the tax obligations corresponding to a specific economic activity and a specific tax profile defined by the user.

Optionally, it allows you to obtain a written copy in PDF format, for which you must authenticate yourself with an electronic Certificate or with the Cl@ve system, and provide an email account to send you the link to the PDF file.
