In the framework of the Recovery Act of 15 May 2014, tax measures were foreseen amongst other things to increase the competitivity of undertakings.

Today, a partial exemption from the obligation to deposit the advance business tax is already in place (art. 275/5 ITC 1992). It is fixed at 15,60%.

This exemption will only apply to the extent that actual premiums are paid in the framework of night work or shifts that meet the very strict tax conditions.

As of 1 January 2015, this partial exemption is fixed at 18%.

In the coming years, this percentage will increase further to:

  • 20,40% as of 1 January 2017;
  • 22,80% as of 1 January 2019.
