This practice has a name namely tax inversion. An Italian motorist who drives a car with a foreign license plate has only one goal, which is to become invisible to the taxman and circulate on Italian roads without respecting any limit, obligation or prohibition. Over the past few years, the phenomenon has experienced a boom, it has imposed itself among all motorists quite quickly, especially after the entry into force from January 1, 2019 of some rules that have not gone down for many.
