Tax Residency in Italy and Non-Dom Status

No time to read

Since 1992, Feod Group has provided full legal support for relocation to Italy. The company includes international lawyers, with offices in Europe, the USA, and Ukraine.

High safety levels, a wonderful climate, the opportunity to provide children with a European education, and many other advantages have led many of our compatriots to choose Italy as a second home.

Currently, many entrepreneurs have an excellent opportunity to move to Italy for permanent residence, obtain tax residency status in Italy, and take advantage of the non-dom tax status benefits in Italy.

What is Tax Resident Status in Italy

A tax resident in Italy is an individual or legal entity subject to taxation in this country based on their place of residence, permanent location, or the registration place of a legal entity.

The main criteria defining a tax resident in Italy are:

Non-Dom Tax Status in Italy

Becoming a tax resident in Italy offers a unique tax benefit under the Non-Domiciled Resident status.

According to Law No. 232, dated December 11, 2016, the Italian government introduced a new tax regime for those wishing to relocate their tax residency to Italy – non domiciled resident.

On October 7, 2024, the Italian Parliament adopted Decree-Law No. 113, introducing important changes to the “Lump Sum Tax Regime” by increasing the fixed tax on foreign income from 100,000 to 200,000 euros for high-net-worth individuals.

Advantages of Non-Dom in Italy

The main advantage of this law is the single annual tax on personal income for any declared income amounts received outside Italy as a fixed tax:

This tax benefit on personal income declaration is provided for a period of 15 years with the right of renewal.

Annual lump-sum tax payments replace the need to pay income tax, local taxes, and property taxes. Taxpayers are also exempt from certain tax and financial monitoring obligations. The Italian Controlled Foreign Companies (CFC) regime does not apply to foreign holdings held by an individual, and no tax credits are granted for any taxes paid abroad.

Another significant advantage is that the non-dom regime completely exempts inheritance and gift taxes on all foreign assets owned by individuals who choose to use this special regime.

Who Can Apply for Non-Dom Status in Italy

The Italian non-dom regime is available to all private individuals interested in moving to Italy. The program is available to people of any nationality, including Italian repatriates.

Applicant Requirements:

How to Obtain Non-Dom Status in Italy

The first step to obtaining non-dom status in Italy is to apply for an Italian Residence Card.

After receiving the Italian Residence Card, a request for a preliminary decision is submitted to the Italian tax authorities, which includes:

Italian authorities must respond within 120 days (+60 under certain conditions).

Non-dom status in Italy can be canceled upon request and will be automatically canceled if the annual payment is not made.
