If you’re an internet user in Italy, you may have heard of SPID (Sistema Pubblico di Identità Digitale), the digital identity system that allows you to access various online services securely. But what exactly does it cost to obtain an SPID? Let’s dive into the details.

What is SPID and why do you need it?

SPID is a digital identity system developed by AgID (Agenzia per l’Italia Digitale) that enables Italian citizens, residents, and businesses to access a wide range of online services offered by the public administration and private entities. It eliminates the need for creating multiple usernames and passwords for different services and simplifies the digital identity management process.

  • • Allows access to public administration services, such as submitting tax returns, accessing health records, and obtaining official documents.
  • • Enables secure online transactions and interactions with private businesses in Italy.
  • • Improves the overall efficiency and security of digital services.

Do you have to pay for SPID?

Yes, obtaining an SPID involves certain costs. While the digital identity system itself is free, there are fees associated with the identity provider (IDP) services that issue and manage SPID digital identities. These fees vary depending on the IDP you choose.

How much does it cost?

The prices for obtaining an SPID can vary depending on the identity provider you select. Generally, there are three types of SPID levels available: SPID Level 1, SPID Level 2, and SPID Level 3, each offering a different level of identity assurance and services.

Here is a breakdown of the approximate costs for obtaining different SPID levels:

  • • SPID Level 1: The cost for this basic level of SPID may range from €4 to €20 annually.
  • • SPID Level 2: The cost for SPID Level 2, which offers higher assurance and broader access to services, can range from €10 to €40 annually.
  • • SPID Level 3: The cost of obtaining SPID Level 3, which provides the highest level of assurance and access to sensitive services, may range from €15 to €80 per year.

It is important to note that these costs are approximate and may vary depending on the specific identity provider. Additionally, some IDPs may offer discounts or promotions that could affect the final price.

Are there any additional costs?

In addition to the fees charged by the identity providers, there might be additional costs involved in the SPID acquisition process. These can include charges for verifying and certifying supporting documents required during the identity verification process. These document-related costs typically depend on the specific document requested, such as digital certificates or electronic signatures, and may range from a few euros to higher amounts.

Obtaining an SPID in Italy involves some costs, primarily associated with the identity provider services. The exact cost depends on the SPID level you choose and the identity provider you select. It’s always a good idea to compare different identity providers and their pricing before making a decision. Don’t forget to consider any additional document-related costs that may arise during the SPID acquisition process. With SPID, you can enjoy secure and streamlined access to a wide range of online services!
