The four numbers that define your tax situation in Italy.
Italy uses a progressive national income tax (IRPEF) with three brackets. Regions and municipalities levy additional surcharges (1.23–3.33% regional, 0–0.9% municipal). Employee social contributions (~9.19%) are deducted before income tax.
Italy has a number of tax regimes that benefit expats. One is the Non-Dom Flat Tax. For 2026, the annual flat tax for new high-net-worth residents on foreign income has increased to €300,000. The second is a 50% discount on income tax for up to €600,000 per year, for five years. This is for highly qualified or specialised workers. You have to have been a non-resident of Italy for tax purposes for the three previous years before applying and commit to spending four years in Italy. (Simmons & Simmons)

This result uses the maximum regional surcharge (3.33%) and the Roma Capitale municipal surcharge (0.9% — standard legal max elsewhere is 0.8%). Actual rates vary by location — many regions/municipalities charge less, so actual take-home may be higher. The employment income deduction (detrazione lavoro dipendente) and family credits are not applied.
