recovery (of debt)

Usage Note

Riscossione refers specifically to the collection of money owed — taxes, fees, debts — by an authority or agent. It is distinct from raccolta (a general gathering) and belongs firmly to fiscal and administrative language. The body responsible is the agente della riscossione (tax collection agency). The verb is riscuotere, which is irregular.

Examples

"La riscossione delle imposte avviene ogni anno."

Natural Translation

The collection of taxes happens every year.
