Receipt lottery: prizes running into the millions, first draw on 14 January 2021

Article 1, paragraph 540, Law no. 232/2016 introduced the receipt lottery.

This is a new free prize competition, which, after several postponements (most recently the six-month postponement provided for in Article 141, Decree Law no. 34/2020 due to the epidemiological emergency from Covid-19), will come into force from 1 January 2021.

On 5 March 2020, the Director of the Italian Customs and Monopolies Agency issued Provision No. 80217/2020 (hereinafter the “Provision”), setting the operational instructions to participate to the receipt lottery.

The Provision in question regulates the following operational aspects:
