Thinking about renovating a property in Italy?

Be careful. You may need specific building permits before starting any work.

In Italy, renovation rules are strict and can vary depending on:
• the type of work
• the structure of the property
• local municipal regulations

In some cases, starting work without the correct authorization can lead to:
• financial penalties
• legal issues
• or even being required to restore the property to its original condition

That’s why understanding the right permit (CILA, SCIA or building permit) is essential before beginning any project.

At ILF Law Firm, we assist foreign buyers throughout the entire renovation process, ensuring full compliance with Italian regulations.

Thinking about retiring in Italy?

Italy offers a special 7% flat tax regime designed for foreign pensioners who relocate to specific areas of the country.

This means:
• a fixed 7% tax rate on foreign income
• no progressive taxation
• potential exemptions from certain reporting obligations
• a regime that can last up to 10 years

However, eligibility is subject to specific conditions, including:
• receiving a pension from abroad
• not being a tax resident in Italy in recent years
• relocating to certain municipalities in Southern Italy or specific areas

This is a valuable opportunity, but it requires proper planning and legal guidance to apply correctly.

At ILF Law Firm, we assist international clients in evaluating and accessing this tax regime.

Can foreigners get a mortgage in Italy?

Yes, but it’s not as straightforward as many expect.

Italian banks do offer mortgages to non-residents, but the process is stricter and depends on several factors, including your financial profile and documentation.

Here’s what to expect:
• banks usually finance 60–70% of the property value
• detailed financial documents are required (translated and legalized)
• approval depends on timing, profile and bank policies
• the process involves additional costs (fees, valuation, insurance)

Most importantly: preparation makes the difference between approval and rejection.

At ILF Law Firm, we assist international clients in structuring their case and working with trusted Italian banks.

Planning to work in Italy?

The Italian government has introduced the new Decreto Flussi 2025, defining how many non-EU workers can legally enter Italy for work.

But here’s the key point: not everyone can apply freely. The system is based on quotas, timing and employer sponsorship.

Some important aspects to understand:
• limited number of permits available
• applications open only during specific time windows
• strong competition for available quotas
• the role of Italian employers is essential

This is why many applications fail: it’s not just about eligibility, but also timing and process.

🏡 Buying property in Italy is not just about the purchase price.

Foreign buyers often underestimate taxes and additional costs, which can significantly impact the final budget.

Some key elements to consider:
• purchase taxes (private seller vs developer)
• notary and registration fees
• legal and technical checks
• recurring property taxes

Understanding costs before signing helps avoid unpleasant surprises and delays.
