Report: Around Eight Million Italian Taxpayers Pay 65% of Total Income Tax
A new report finds that a small share of Italy's taxpayers account for the majority of income tax revenue, while lower earners contribute a small fraction.
A new report has found that around eight million Italian taxpayers are responsible for 65% of the country's total income tax revenue, highlighting the concentration of tax contributions among higher earners.
According to the report, 47% of taxpayers who fall into the lowest income tax bands contribute only 5% of the total IRPEF (personal income tax) revenue collected.
The figures illustrate the progressive structure of Italy's income tax system, in which a relatively small share of taxpayers accounts for the majority of revenue while a much larger group contributes comparatively little.
The report did not specify further breakdowns of income levels associated with each band, according to the summary available.
