Italy preliminarily approves decree consolidating registration and indirect taxes to simplify compliance, excluding VAT.
The Italian Council of Ministers granted preliminary approval to a Legislative Decree consolidating the rules on registration tax and other indirect taxes, excluding VAT, on 26 May 2025.
This measure is part of a broader tax reform aimed at reorganising existing regulations to simplify compliance and reduce administrative burdens for taxpayers.
The consolidated code will cover several taxes, including registration tax, mortgage and cadastral taxes, inheritance and gift tax, stamp duty, special stamp duty on repatriated financial assets, tax on financial assets held abroad, as well as substitute taxes and related reliefs, all excluding VAT.
