Italy has offered a special seven-percent tax rate for pensioners who move to underpopulated towns in the centre or south of the country
The idea is to persuade people to consider retirement in parts of the peninsula that have long faced depopulation following years of intense emigration from the south to the north of Italy or abroad
Welcoming more retirees to central and southern regions is hoped to not only boost the local economy
but also fund services and education in a bid to persuade more young people to stay
If you're interested in taking advantage of the scheme
As the scheme is aimed at attracting new tax residents
it's open only to retirees who have been legally resident in a country other than Italy for the past five years
That doesn't mean you can't apply if you previously lived in Italy more than five years ago
but you can't be a recent Italian resident

you must also draw your pension from outside Italy
“It doesn’t matter whether you are a citizen of Italy or not, but you must receive a foreign-sourced pension,” says Italian tax expert Nicolò Bolla of Accounting Bolla
you'll need to move from a country that has a tax agreement with Italy
According to tax experts at Studio Legale Metta
you'll need to qualify for Italian residency
A major benefit of the scheme is that there's no income cap
and it applies to all your foreign earnings
such as rental income and dividends overseas - not just your pension
This means huge savings considering that Italy’s personal income tax (Irpef) brackets range from 23 to 43 percent depending on your income
you also won't have to pay regional and municipal income taxes
which tend to add an extra two to three percent to your tax bill
As the scheme is designed to benefit underpopulated towns in the centre-south, you'll have to move to a small town in Sicily, Calabria, Sardinia, Campania, Basilicata, Abruzzo, Molise or Puglia, or selected towns in Lazio
The rule is that the town you move to must have no more than 20,000 inhabitants at the time you register as a resident (if the population grows later
You must apply no later than the year after you become an Italian tax resident
The scheme is time limited to the first nine tax years following the year in which you transfer your tax residency
There's no official list of all the eligible towns, but you can consult the latest population data from national statistics office Istat to find out which towns you can choose from
the list of places you could move to was extended to include some towns with fewer than 20,000 inhabitants in Lazio
These were towns that had been affected by two major earthquakes in the Central Apennine mountains in 2009 and 2016
In late 2024, a government official said that only around 500 people had taken advantage of the scheme to move to the affected areas
and that the foreign ministry planned to do more in the future to promote the initiative
