About Ente Nazionale della Cinofilia Italiana

Ente Nazionale della Cinofilia Italiana, commonly known by its abbreviation ENCI, is the national kennel club of Italy. It manages the official stud book for pedigree dogs, sets and maintains breed standards, and organizes a large number of dog shows, working trials, and other canine events throughout Italy. ENCI plays a central role for Italian dog breeders, owners, and handlers, including the registration of litters and pedigrees and liaison with the international federation of kennel clubs.

A charge labeled “ENCI” on a card statement is most likely related to services such as dog or litter registration fees, membership dues, show or trial entry fees, or other payments made through ENCI’s official systems or affiliated offices. These could be one‑time purchases (e.g., registering a dog) or periodic fees associated with membership or regular participation in ENCI events. Because the descriptor you provided (“PURCHASE ON 0630 AT ENCI”) is very generic and lacks location or context, there remains some uncertainty that this ENCI is the correct match.

To verify the charge, the cardholder should first check any recent interactions with ENCI, such as online payments via enci.it, show entry confirmations, or breeder paperwork around the transaction date. Reviewing email receipts, ENCI account pages, or event registration confirmations can help confirm whether the amount and date match. If questions remain, contacting ENCI through the official contact details on their website and providing the transaction date, amount, and card type can help clarify whether ENCI processed the payment; if ENCI has no record, the cardholder should then contact their card issuer to dispute or investigate potential fraud.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of charges might I see from ENCI on my card statement?

Charges from ENCI typically relate to dog or litter registrations, membership dues, show or working‑trial entry fees, or other services connected to pedigree documentation and canine events in Italy.

Is an ENCI charge a one‑time fee or a recurring subscription?

Most ENCI payments, such as dog registrations or show entries, are one‑time fees. Membership dues may recur periodically, but ENCI does not commonly bill like a streaming or software subscription; check your ENCI account or receipts to see whether you authorized any recurring payments.

How can I confirm that an ENCI charge is legitimate?

Log into your ENCI or event‑registration account (if applicable) and review recent payments, show entries, or registration requests. Then compare the transaction date and amount to the charge on your statement. You can also search your email for receipts or confirmations from enci.it around the same date.

How do I contact ENCI about a billing question or possible error?

Visit enci.it and use the official contact information or regional office contacts listed there. Provide your name, dog or litter registration details (if applicable), the exact transaction date, amount, and last four digits of the card so ENCI staff can look up the payment in their records.

Can ENCI place small ‘test’ or authorization holds on my card?

If you paid ENCI online, their payment processor may place a temporary authorization hold to confirm your card, which can appear briefly as a pending charge. These holds usually disappear automatically within a few days and are not actual completed transactions.

What should I do if I don’t recognize an ENCI charge at all?

First check with family members or anyone who might share your card and who could have paid for dog‑related services with ENCI. If no one recognizes the transaction and ENCI cannot find a matching payment, contact your card issuer immediately to report the unrecognized charge and request an investigation.

How can I get a refund from ENCI if I was charged incorrectly?

Refunds depend on ENCI’s policies for the specific service (e.g., show entry vs. registration). Contact ENCI using the details on enci.it, explain the situation, and provide documentation such as receipts and event or registration references. If ENCI confirms the error, they can arrange a refund through their payment system.
