Tax regimes

2 of Ancona’s 47 comuni qualify for the 7% pensioner regime4.3% of the province’s towns, but 6.9% of the people who live in it.

The two differ because the regime caps comune size: the towns it excludes are the biggest ones. Where you’d actually be living matters more than how many towns are on the list.

This lists the regimes we’ve published. Others exist that we haven’t encoded yet — we add one only once it has been checked against the legislation — so this isn’t a complete account of what might apply to you.
