Ancora una volta aggiorno questo post: vorrei tanto essere diplomatico ma i continui aggiornamenti su questo argomento sono la dimostrazione di: 1) quanto sia macchinosa la burocrazia Italiana; 2) quanto sia difficile reperire info a riguardo; 3) quanto questa storia delle marche da bollo (ora chiamate " tassa di concessione governativa ") sul passaporto sia proprio difficile da digerire.
Il post nella sua seconda stesura "update" aveva una piccola imprecisione, che poteva diventare molto grave in alcune situazioni particolari, quindi, in caso avessi fatto qualche danno con le mie precedenti info, me ne scuso.

Penso sia scontato dire che per andare in Giappone, cosiccome accade per qualsiasi paese non aderente ai trattati di Schengen o non oggetto di accordi o deroghe con lo stato Italiano in materia di circolazioni di persone o merci, sia necessario avere il passaporto. Non è obbligatorio quello elettronico, cioè che contiene un microchip nella copertina posteriore . Non è invece altrettanto scontato parlare delle marche da bollo.

[Definizioni: Accordi di Schengen - Unione Europea ]
Il passaporto è valido per viaggiare al di fuori degli stati della comunità europea e/o aderenti all'accordo di Schengen (Austria, Belgio, Bulgaria, Cipro, Danimarca, Estonia, Finlandia, Francia, Germania, Grecia, Irlanda, Lettonia, Lituania, Lussemburgo, Malta, Paesi Bassi, Polonia, Portogallo, Regno Unito, Repubblica Ceca, Romania, Slovacchia, Slovenia, Spagna, Svezia, Ungheria [ non tutti the above mentioned countries are party to the Schengen Agreement, and not all the countries listed above are part of the European community ]) only if you pay the fee for a government grant of € 40.29 .
Here is an excerpt from the text published by the Ministry of Interior by the Department of Public Safety - CENTRAL IMMIGRATION AND BORDER POLICE - Office of General Affairs and Legal on the " clarification on the grant governatica for passports (or stamp for electronic passports or cash for electronic passports):
" for a passport must be presented, placed on the planned resort, one (1) government grant for passports (= stamp for electronic passports for electronic passports = mark) of € 40.29.
Passports has a validity of 10 years from the date of issue.
Since September 2007, the electronic stamp has replaced the paper that has been declared off-course. Therefore, there is currently in distribution (from the tobacco) and must be used, exclusively, the stamps in the form of electronic cash.
The government license, passport covers Legal year, commencing on the date of issue of passport. The government grant, applied during the year, endorsed by the authorities responsible for issuing the passport PS or by the border police staff, will expire in any event, the date and correspond to the month of expiry of passport.
If the passport was not used continuously, for foreign travel to countries other than those belonging to the European Union, the electronic cash will be able to be applied annually. It is considered appropriate to clarify that payment of a government grant for a passport must be done through the use of stamps telematics.
In this regard, the Inland Revenue (with questioning n.954-749/2008-PROT.N.954- 2009/7527), clarified that the payment made through the giro and only allowed If the subject is the impossibility of finding objective markers of telematics related to extraordinary events such as dealers' strike, major natural disasters.

So the issue of the passport, the user pays a fee to government licensing of the validity of one year from date of issue of passport:
Queste sono le marche da bollo elettroniche di cui parla il testo, con evidenziata in rosso la smarcatura, cioè il timbro-data che viene apposto dalle autorità preposte...
E questa è la dicitura che appare da qualche anno nei nuovi passaporti, che sostituisce la marca da bollo che prima veniva incollata in occasione dell'emissione e smarcata. Chiunque facesse adesso il passaporto, non avrà nessuna marca da bollo incollata al passaporto e deve cominciare a preoccuparsi della marca da bollo dopo un anno dall'emissione dello stesso !!
Potrete viaggiare in lungo e in largo per il mondo col vostro passaporto. Qui però scatta il trabocchetto, because the honest citizen, knowing that, as common sense would suggest the fact that the issue is pasted a stamp of validity annually after the first deadline each year buy a stamp or mail to the tobacconist and paste it to the bookies passport. First of all there is to say that if not travel in a country outside Europe or outside the Schengen area after the expiry of the stamp duty paid on the issue, do not buy another stamp mail is a waste of money : notwithstanding the expiry of the government concession tax passport expires, it remains a valid identity document until its natural end (ie 10 years from issue).

And if you want to travel outside the states listed above and it has been over a year of issue of passport? You must pay the fee for buying its government license stamp or mail to the tobacco shop in any other place where they sell, and the police could "unmark" that is stamped with a date-stamp (see photo at ' beginning of my post, the red square highlights the smarcatura). now no longer exist without government license fees as stamps are printed by a machine, but do not worry: the date electronically printed on it is not worth for tax purposes .
But here begins the jungle because after the end of the year from the issue and therefore the natural end of government tax paid for the issuance of the passport, there are several situations to consider: basically need to keep in mind the date of issuance of your passport and take steps accordingly . The following examples show that apply to a passport issued June 1, 2007. All examples only means for the field of using non-EU and extra-Schengen passport, that is for departures direct from Italy to countries outside the European or non-Schengen .
But here begins the jungle because after the end of the year from the issue and therefore the natural end of government tax paid for the issuance of the passport, there are several situations to consider: basically need to keep in mind the date of issuance of your passport and take steps accordingly . The following examples show that apply to a passport issued June 1, 2007. All examples only means for the field of using non-EU and extra-Schengen passport, that is for departures direct from Italy to countries outside the European or non-Schengen .
Example 1) Your journey is not the case at anniversary issue of the passport stamp not unmarked at the departure or return :
The first stamp is valid for one year, so by 1 June 2007 to May 31, 2008. You have not traveled, and quite rightly you have not renewed. Organized a trip in November 2009. You buy the stamp before the journey and apply it to the passport, in a page that says "Visa-Visa . If the stamp is not unmarked by the border police at the start or the Guardia di Finanza on your return, will apply indefinitely until will be unmarked, so you can leave without limitations, until someone does not deign to put on a stamp.
Example 2) Your journey is not the case at anniversary issue of the passport stamp unmarked departure or return :
organized a trip in November 2009. You buy the stamp before the journey and apply it to the passport, in a page that says "Visa-Visa . The border police at the start or the Guardia di Finanza to return your unmarked stamp: its validity will expire on the first anniversary next issue of the passport , and May 31, 2010. You can travel without restrictions up to that date, after which for additional trips or extra-European countries outside the Schengen area will need to buy another .
Example 3) Your journey is at the anniversary of the passport issuance ( Attention in this case are two stamps! ) not stamp unmarked departure or return :
Organize a tour from 2 May to 25 June 2009. You buy the stamp before the journey and apply it to the passport, in a page that says "Visa-Visa . If the stamp is not unmarked by the border police at the start or the Guardia di Finanza on your return, will apply indefinitely until will be unmarked, so you can leave without limitations, until someone smarcherà brand from stamp duty. It 'still need two stamps (one not glued) for the reasons stated in the following example 4 .
Example 4) Your journey is at the anniversary of the passport issuance ( Attention in this case are two stamps! ) Brand stamp unmarked departure, the traveler has the second stamp :
Plan a trip from May 2 to June 25, 2009. Buy a stamp and apply it before you travel on the passport, in a page that says "Visa-Visa . If the border police at the start dissociates the stamp, this will end before your return, or May 31, 2009. The be monitored without having to return another stamp could cost you a fine ...
Example 5) Your journey is at the anniversary of the passport issuance ( Attention in this case are two stamps! ) first stamp unmarked at the start , second stamp unmarked not return :
Organize a tour from 2 May to 25 June 2009. Buy two brands stamp-apply before the trip and a passport, a page that says "Visa-Visa . If the border police at the start dissociates the first stamp that will be worth then until May 31, 2009, applied to the second stamp , if this is not unmarked by the Guardia di Finanza return will apply indefinitely until smarcatura .
Example 6) Your journey is at anniversary issue of the passport ( Warning in this case are two stamps! ) first stamp unmarked at the start , second stamp unmarked return :
Organize a tour from 2 May to 25 June 2009. Buy two stamps in advance of travel and a passport-apply in a page that says "Visa-Visa . If the border police at the start dissociates the first stamp, applied to the second stamp, even if the latter is unmarked at the back, will apply until the next anniversary of issue of passport, and then until May 31, 2010 .
Many have written to me saying they were "pardoned" the lack of a stamp duty: first of all there is to say that even the police know for sure who will be involved unmark revenue stamps. The consequence is that some simply do not check the stamps. In some cases it is simple luck, or laziness, distraction or oversight of the controller, as regards the other cases covered, simply left Italy when they were not in Japan, but they reached the airport in Japan, certainly in the Schengen area or community area. Example: Japan Air France Flight Rome-Paris-Tokyo: Clearly you leave Italy for an EU country, France, to travel to where you only need a document identity, and then from there you can reach Japan. In the French control the agent will check the expiration date of the passaprto and its validity, but the payment of the fee or no annual government grant of € 40.29, control, and its sole responsibility smarcatura Italian authorities. So if you go to Italy a country outside the Schengen area, equipe of the stamp, but if you call in Europe, you should have no problems and the purchase of the stamp is useless!
In this respect also respond to a comment on this post ever received from reader John, thank you and that which merited publication of the update to this post: confirm that it is virtually impossible that anyone checks the stamps in a passport or EU Schengen area in part It is as if a truck driver with his personal car to reach the workplace, and a patrol the road (completely unaware that he is a truck driver) asked him the license to drive trucks as well as for driving cars. Also in my experience, knowing the structure of an airport, I can say 100% that is impossible to be subjected to any customs or border control if you start from an EU country or Schengen . I have no news of retrospective controls. post-control potrebbe essere estremamente lungo oltretutto, e penso che chiunque si asterrebbe dal farlo...
E quando si ritorna da un volo intercontinentale o verso una destinazione extra-Europea o extra-Schengen facendo scalo in un aeroporto comunitario o Schengen??
Voi penserete che, come per il caso del partire verso un paese extra-Europeo o Extra-Schengen facendo scalo in un aeroporto Europeo o Schengen non ci siano problemi di sorta: NON E' COSI'!!! Per essere sicuri dovete porvi una domanda: " Faccio uno scalo (eventualità abbastanza rara) nell'aeroporto intermedio? Oppure faccio un transito (eventualità extremely likely)? "... give the definitions, assuming that we are European citizens returning from a trip in a non-European or non-Schengen through an intermediate airport located within the European Union or the Schengen area ...
Scalo - You can call in other ways, it is simply an intermediate stop at an airport, for example, you live in Cagliari, the abstruse for some reason or maybe because maybe your travel planner has found a reasonable price in this sense of your route back is Tokyo-Paris-Cagliari. The flight from Tokyo to Paris is by Air France, while the flight from Paris to Cagliari is performed by Meridiana: the two companies have no connection to code-sharing and there are two different booking codes for the two flights . You will arrive in Paris and you do these things:
- of procedures immigration.
(entry into the European Union or the Schengen area).
- Withdrawal of hold baggage (the one with the label ...).
- of procedures for customs control .
- Completion of a new check-in hold baggage
- Issuance of a new boarding pass
- New flight to your final destination.
This is the case for which it is not worth worrying about : the French do not care a fig for the your stupid stamp on their passport is sufficient for the valid (as in all civilized countries of this planet). Upon arrival at Cagliari will not have any control of any kind since arriving on a flight Community. Mission accomplished.
Transit - It 's the most likely possibility, now that rates are obtained by buying cheaper packages with more flights, perhaps carried out by the same airline or airlines belonging to alliances such as One World or Sky Team, or ties with airlines to code-sharing. A package of transit flights provides a unique booking reference for all flights . When making the Check-in for a series of flights involving Crossing, usually the baggage is tagged to be sent directly to the final destination, and often but not always receive a book with all the boarding passes for all flights that we preparing to perform.
Take the case: Your return route is Paris-Rome-Tokyo, all with Air France: you have a unique booking reference, when you present at check-in in Tokyo, your baggage will be tagged with a tag that shows NRT (Tokyo-Narita), CDG (Paris Charles De Gaulle) and white on black background FCO (Rome-Fiumicino), which is the final destination. You have probably two boarding passes, one for the first flight and one for the second, and if there had only been one, you will be asked to withdraw the second intermediate airport to transit desk.
When you do the intermediate transit, do not even come out from the sterile area, you will not do security checks (this however is not obvious) and after any transition from the transit desk to pick up the boarding pass to get there without missing any problems at the gate for the next flight.
arrival at final destination, you do these things:
- of procedures immigration.
(entry into the European Union or the Schengen area).
- Withdrawal of hold baggage (the with the tag ...).
- of procedures for customs control .
When flights with "transit" back from a country outside Europe or outside the Schengen area, the entry into the European community or the Schengen area is the airport of final destination, and if the destination airport finish is Italian, its immigration and customs checks are carried out by Italian staff: and here you must be in compliance with the revenue stamp.
