stamps Yes, but the stamps in this case are a cash equivalent. So it could be "cash and cash equivalents in hand" or "cash equivalents in hand", though I can't say I've ever seen the latter as a stand-alone term.

Paul O'Brien Apr 1, 2022:

Me too But a department for what? Not for selling duty stamps, I presume.

Daniela Gabrietti (asker) Apr 1, 2022:

I agree with philgoddard In my opinion this is the name of a department.

Paul O'Brien Mar 31, 2022:

But yes It may be just a question of the Municipality offering the service of the sale of duty stamps, though personally I've always gone to the tobacco dude.

Paul O'Brien Mar 31, 2022:

The tax cops If you undergo an inspection by the Italian tax authorities (with our without machine guns), they can check to see if you are holding (i.e. if you have "in hand) not just cash, but also cash equivalents, in this case in the form of duty stamps and, I imagine, also postage stamps.

philgoddard Mar 31, 2022:

I think the previous question is only partly relevant, and the accounting term "cash and cash equivalents in hand" isn't going to work.

Daniela: is this the section of the certificate that confirms the fee has been paid? Could it be something like "cashier's department"?

Cassa Valori - Bollati? I'm seeing references to "Cassa Valori Bollati" but I think this is how companies keep track of purchased revenue stamps in their accounts:

Imo If you would also like an explanation in Italian, it's best to post this as an Italian monolingual question as well.

If possible I would like also a translation proposal. Thx

Cosa si intende in questo contesto? Does that mean you want an explanation of the Italian (in italiano)?
