Italy's government has scrapped a proposal that would have required drivers to register a certified digital address before carrying out routine vehicle and licensing procedures, Infrastructure and Transport Minister Matteo Salvini confirmed Saturday, saying the measure will not appear in the country's updated highway code.
The draft text had included a provision making it compulsory to supply a digital domicile registered in the national index for transactions such as vehicle registration, annual inspections, ownership transfers, and driving licence renewals. Salvini stated in a note that there would be "no obligation and no new constraint."
The ministry said the idea was among numerous proposals under review, with more than 100 industry associations, trade unions, and professional bodies submitting feedback throughout August.
