A draft showed on Monday that Italy’s government is planning to end a tax break on short-term rentals as part of its 2026-2028 budget.
Landlords earning income from short-term rentals currently face a 26% tax, but can claim a reduced rate of 21% on one of their properties.
Now Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni’s administration is seeking to impose a single 26% tax band. Forza Italia, one of the parties within Meloni’s coalition, has vowed to oppose the measure, which faces criticism from the industry.
