Italy trims the impatriate tax break to 50%

Italy's impatriate regime dropped from up to 70/90% income exemption to 50% (60% with a minor child), with stricter eligibility, for those relocating from 2024.

What changed

Italy's impatriate (impatriati) tax regime was scaled back: the old 70%/90% income exemptions ended, replaced by a 50% exemption (60% with a dependent minor) for five years on the first €600k, with stricter eligibility (prior foreign residence, qualifications).

When

Applies to people relocating from the 2024 tax year onward.

Who's affected

Anyone counting on the old, more generous exemption when moving to Italy — including on the new nomad visa.

Verify

Tax is case-specific — confirm eligibility with an Italian accountant before relying on it.
