Learn if you can claim a tax credit for your rental payments if you are a tenant with a low income in Italy.

This scheme allows certain tenants to reduce the amount of tax they owe through a credit based on the rent they pay.

Who it's for

This deduction is available to tenants who have a low income.

What you get

  3. Report your rental expenses through your tax declaration.
  4. Check the official portal of the tax authority for specific income limits.
