The regime lasts five tax periods: the transfer year plus the following four. There is no extension and no regional uplift.

Separate option: neo-resident flat tax

For transfers from 01/01/2026, art. 24-bis TUIR provides an informational flat option of €300,000 per tax period for the main applicant plus €50,000 per tax period for each eligible family member. The amount is fixed when residence is acquired. This card is informational and is not included in the calculation.

How this is calculated

Ordinary tax applies the 2026 progressive IRPEF brackets (23% up to €28,000, 33% to €50,000, 43% above) plus your regional and municipal surcharges. Under art. 5 D.Lgs. 209/2023, 50% of qualifying income is exempt, or 60% when the qualifying minor-child condition is met; the first €600,000 receives the relief and any excess is taxed normally.

Important disclaimer

This is an estimate for orientation only, not professional tax advice. Eligibility depends on the full legal requirements and correct election; deductions, credits and individual circumstances are not modelled.
