EP7: Italian Taxes, Residency, and All the details You Can’t Ignore

Talking taxes in Italy is no picnic — especially if you're a foreigner trying to navigate the system. I sat down with Giovanni Cervini to dig into some of the stuff that trips people up the most: tax residency rules, what happens if you own property, double taxation headaches, remote work implications, and how all of it changes if you’re new to Italy. Giovanni laid out how the Italian system looks at fiscal residency (hint: it’s not just about where you sleep), how remote workers should plan ahead, and what incentives might be available if you’re relocating. If you’re thinking about moving here or already have, this is one of those areas where "I'll figure it out later" can get very expensive. The bottom line? Do your homework. Talk to professionals who know the system inside and out. And definitely don’t assume the rules will be the same as back home — they aren’t.If you want to get in touch with Giovanni directly, you can reach him through his firm, Studio Cervini-Grasselli: https://www.cervinigrasselli.com/cont...The information provided in this podcast is intended for general informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, legal, tax, or professional advice.
