Secondary tax sources. Regimes have conditions (e.g. Impatriati needs 3 years' prior non-residence + a 4-year residency commitment; the two regimes cannot be combined). Verify with the Agenzia delle Entrate. UPDATE 2026-07-15: the 2026 Budget Law was enacted as Law No. 199 of 30 Dec 2025 (Gazzetta Ufficiale), extending the Regime Impatriati (D.Lgs. 209/2023 - 50% tax-base reduction, EUR 600,000/year cap, arrival year plus 4 more) to foreign workers who transfer tax residence to Italy from 2026. It is unresolved whether this is the same measure other 2026 sources still describe as a separate, still-undefined 'Digital Nomad Tax Bonus,' or a distinct one - treat the extended Impatriati terms above as the confirmed baseline and re-check for a dedicated DNV-specific bonus once a primary text (Gazzetta Ufficiale or an Agenzia delle Entrate circolare) is read directly.
