Italy: filing with the Banca d'Italia

xbrl-csv-only

'In continuità con quanto richiesto nell'esercizio di Dry-Run del 2024, i registri delle informazioni andranno condivisi in formato "CSV plain"' (14 March 2025 communication); DPM 4.0 instructions: 'adottando il formato tecnico di trasmissione plain-CSV'. No Excel upload channel. Since April 2026 Banca d'Italia offers an OPTIONAL Excel macro tool on INFOSTAT ('Link utili' of the DORA survey) that converts tabular input into the plain-CSV zip; it performs no checks and has no legal effect ('Il tool non effettua alcuna tipologia di controllo formale o deterministico sui dati; restituisce la segnalazione già compressa in un archivio zip').

INFOSTAT (base informativa / survey 'DORA')

url https://infostat.bancaditalia.it

login prerequisites Entity must be accredited on INFOSTAT with a partner code made of its LEI plus the consolidation suffix '.IND' or '.CON' ('Le entità finanziarie devono accreditarsi alla piattaforma INFOSTAT con il codice partner formato dal proprio codice LEI (Legal Entity Identifier) + il suffisso indicante il perimetro di consolidamento (".IND" o ".CON")'). Entities that already use INFOSTAT with an ABI code are enabled automatically; others must obtain an LEI and request accreditation per the manual 'Istruzioni per l'invio delle segnalazioni armonizzate di vigilanza e risoluzione'. Users self-register (auto-registrazione; help: autoregistrazione@bancaditalia.it); INFOSTAT help desk rdvi.helpdesk@bancaditalia.it, tel. 06 4792 6459. Roles on INFOSTAT are 'gestore' (administrator who delegates) and 'operatore' (per-survey operator) - wording from the April 2026 vademecum ('i gestori e operatori abilitati in Infostat per la survey DORA').

LEI.CON/.IND_IT_DORA010100_DORA_2025-03-31_TIMESTAMP (17 numeri)

Example DUMMYLEI123456789012.CON_FR_DORA010100_DORA_2024-12-31_20241213174803429 (EBA sample cited by the vademecum; for Italy the country element is IT, e.g. <LEI>.IND_IT_DORA010100_DORA_<reference date>_<17-digit timestamp>.zip)

Notes Original: 'Il nome dell'archivio zip contenente la segnalazione deve avere il seguente formato: LEI.CON/.IND_IT_DORA010100_DORA_2025-03-31_TIMESTAMP (17 numeri)'. English: zip name = LEI + '.CON' or '.IND' + '_IT_DORA010100_DORA_' + reference date (yyyy-mm-dd) + '_' + 17-digit timestamp. The 14 April 2026 vademecum still prints the literal reference date 2025-03-31; it does not restate the pattern for 2025-12-31. The reference date element is the reporting reference date in yyyy-mm-dd per the EBA sample. The entityID in parameters.csv must start with 'rs:' not 'lei:' (ERRORE EBA 714: 'entityID,rs:CODICE_LEI.IND e non entityID,lei: CODICE_LEI.IND').

root folder must equal zip name yes

meta inf location Inside the single root folder (named exactly like the zip) there must be exactly two folders: META-INF (containing only reportPackage.json, identical to the EBA sample) and reports (report.json identical to EBA sample, FilingIndicators.csv, parameters.csv and one csv per template).

other rules

• 'All'interno dell'archivio zip deve essere presente una sola cartella denominata esattamente come l'archivio zip.'
• 'All'interno di quest'ultima cartella devono essere presenti solo due cartelle: META-INF e reports.'
• reportPackage.json must be exactly {"documentInfo":{"documentType":"https://xbrl.org/report-package/2023"}}; report.json must be exactly {"documentInfo":{"documentType":"https://xbrl.org/2021/xbrl-csv","extends":["http://www.eba.europa.eu/eu/fr/xbrl/crr/fws/dora/4.0/mod/dora.json"]}}
• 'Maiuscole e minuscole di file e cartelle devono rispecchiare esattamente quelle del file d'esempio dell'EBA.' Template csv file names must be all lower-case including the extension.
• All files UTF-8 ('Non sono ammesse altre codifiche (ad esempio ANSI)').
• April 2026 change: a template with no data must still be included as a csv containing only the header row (e.g. c0010,c0020,c0030); the April/May 2025 versions allowed omitting the file. FilingIndicators.csv must list every templateID in upper case and all set to 'true'.
• Strings containing a comma must be double-quoted; dates yyyy-mm-dd; enumerations with eba_ prefix (e.g. eba_GA:AT); booleans true/false; monetary values in units (not thousands/millions).
• No trailing empty lines, no empty trailing columns, no fully empty rows, no duplicated rows, no empty header columns (EBA errors 809/805/806/801).

Notes 13 Feb 2026 communication: 'le successive raccolte, a partire dal 2026, sono fissate su base annuale, con termine per l'invio dei dati alla Banca d'Italia al 15 marzo di ogni anno e con data di riferimento al 31 dicembre dell'anno precedente.' Data-quality checks apply; on anomalies entities must correct and resubmit ('in caso di anomalie verrà richiesto alle entità finanziare di correggere gli errori e procedere con un nuovo invio dei Registri'). The April 2026 vademecum (Allegato C) says the ESAs ran additional quality checks on the last version received by 23:59 on 31 March 2026 and that flagged entities had to resubmit on INFOSTAT 'entro il 29 aprile 2026'. First cycle (2025): deadline 15 April 2025, reference date 31 March 2025, corrections by 30 April 2025, ESA checks in May 2025.

INFOSTAT 'invio diagnostico' (diagnostic submission) runs the Banca d'Italia/EBA formal checks before an official submission at any time; the optional Excel tool output is 'pronta per essere sottoposta al sistema dei controlli tramite la funzione dell'invio diagnostico in Infostat'. ESA additional quality checks are NOT run on diagnostic submissions. No separate test calendar published.

available yes

No maker/checker requirement stated for the DORA survey. Submission is by an INFOSTAT-enabled operator; the vademecum refers to 'i gestori e operatori abilitati in Infostat per la survey DORA'. A 'diagnostico' (test) submission and an official submission are distinct actions.

roles INFOSTAT 'gestore' (entity administrator, grants delegations) and 'operatore' (authorised to send for a given survey).

format INFOSTAT 'rilievi' (findings) messages with IDRIL codes for Banca d'Italia checks; EBA additional errors are also notified through INFOSTAT 'con le consuete modalità'. ESA additional-quality-check feedback is a CSV named <submitted file name>_ERROR_LOG in the INFOSTAT Document Manager (https://infostat.bancaditalia.it/infr-document-manager-fe-web/homeTree.jsp?community=BANKITALIA&survey=DORA) with columns Table and Column, Row ID, Reported Value, Error Code, Error Message.

timing Not stated as a fixed number of days. Errors are notified only for official submissions ('Gli errori saranno notificati solamente per gli invii ufficiali, mentre eventuali anomalie presenti nelle segnalazioni sottoposte a diagnostico non saranno evidenziate'). ESA additional checks run after the ESA deadline (after 31 March 2026 in the 2026 cycle).

resubmission Correct and resubmit a new complete register ('procedere con un nuovo invio dei Registri'); errors marked 'Rilievo scartante EBA' cause the whole submission to be rejected by the EBA. For 2026 ESA additional-check errors: resubmit by 29 April 2026. Banca d'Italia relays ESA feedback but 'non fornisce supporto nel merito'.

true

'le altre entità dovranno dotarsi di un codice LEI e richiedere l'accreditamento alla piattaforma INFOSTAT' - the INFOSTAT partner code for the DORA survey is LEI + '.IND'/'.CON', so an entity without an LEI must obtain one before it can be accredited. LEI/EUID codes in the register must be valid in GLEIF/BRIS (EBA VR_2, VR_12, VR_16, VR_23, VR_71, VR_72, VR_77, VR_78).
