There is a fixed tax on Bank accounts that are over 5000€ (It's a fixed 35€ yearly fee). It is definitely not 6%. Some Banks charge stupid fees but that's another thing.
If you have stocks, there is a Tobin Tax but it is very low (0.1-0.2%).
VAT is 22% since 2013
Taxes on income are bracketed and range between 27-43%.
so a person living in Rome can earn nothing per month?
I totally agree with your observations on Italy
Oh and Phil stop waving your flag while you're at it nobody cares what you have to say.
Some of us on here can relate to the comments mentioned on April 8,2019 and I'm one of those.
Phil you're a wannabe piece of trash that nobody wants.
