A report presented to parliament on Tuesday said that 15.27% of Italy’s taxpayers, the 6.4 million people who declared annual earnings of 35,000 euros or more, paid 63.4% of all the income tax to go into the State coffers in 2022.
It said the 40.35% of taxpayers, just under 17 million people, who declared earnings of 15,000 or less contributed 1.29% of total income tax.
The report said 75.80% of taxpayers declared incomes of up to 29,000 euros, paying only 24.43% of all income tax, adding that this was not enough to cover the nation’s healthcare spending.
