Tax starting points

Income tax: 23% / 33% / 43% + local
Corporation tax: 24% IRES + regional IRAP
VAT / sales tax: 22% IVA
Tariffs: Rates depend on the product, origin and trade agreement.

2026 national personal bands; regional and municipal income taxes are additional. IRES is 24%; standard IRAP is 3.9% on a different base, with regional/sector variation. The taxes cannot simply be added into one universal effective rate.

Tax sources checked 2026-09-17. These are headline references; marginal rates apply to income bands, not every unit of income. Payroll contributions and allowances are not included in this compact comparison.

Pension schedules still marked “Not yet verified” are missing verified comparison data, not countries without pensions. Pension entitlements depend on contributions, age, residence and scheme.
