Notice period for the owners' meeting in Italy
The notice must reach the owners at least five days before the first-call date. It must state the agenda specifically and go by registered post, certified e-mail (PEC), fax or hand delivery, with the place and time, or the platform and time if the meeting is by videoconference.
What the law says
L'avviso di convocazione, contenente specifica indicazione dell'ordine del giorno, deve essere comunicato almeno cinque giorni prima della data fissata per l'adunanza in prima convocazione, a mezzo di posta raccomandata, posta elettronica certificata, fax o tramite consegna a mano, e deve contenere l'indicazione del luogo e dell'ora della riunione o, se prevista in modalità di videoconferenza, della piattaforma elettronica sulla quale si terrà la riunione e dell'ora della stessa. In caso di omessa, tardiva o incompleta convocazione degli aventi diritto, la deliberazione assembleare è annullabile ai sensi dell'articolo 1137 del codice su istanza dei dissenzienti o assenti perché non ritualmente convocati.Last verified:
What this means in practice
The five days are a minimum and count to the first-call date. The list of channels in the text does not include ordinary e-mail. A missing, late or incomplete notice makes the resolution voidable at the request of owners who were absent or dissenting for that reason. The second call may not fall on the same calendar day as the first. The building's own regolamento may add rules, so it is worth reading before a notice goes out.
Where Unitify fits
Unitify sends announcements and meeting notices to residents and keeps a record of what went out and when. Whether a notice is valid, in its channel, deadline and content, depends on the law above and on your own rules. Unitify does not make a notice valid.
