The present application relates to an anti-siphon valve for a tank including a body with an inlet, an outlet, and a passage for the fluid, the passage connecting the inlet to the outlet. The anti-siphon valve further includes a movable cut-off device interacting with a seat to close the passage. The cut-off device normally remains in the closed position and is designed to open the passage in the presence of a positive pressure difference between the inlet and the outlet. The anti-siphon valve further includes an auxiliary control mechanism for the cut-off device towards the passage opening, the control mechanism being designed to act on the cut-off device only to open the passage, so as to enable the cut-off device to move under the effect of pressure at the outlet independently of the mechanism.
