Italy and San Marino coordinate fiscal and social cooperation

Italian Deputy Minister of Economy and Finance Maurizio Leo conducted an official visit to San Marino on September 18, 2026, to strengthen bilateral relations and coordinate economic integration. The meeting, held at Palazzo Begni, involved San Marinese State Secretaries Luca Beccari (Foreign Affairs), Marco Gatti (Finance and Budget), Rossano Fabbri (Industry), and Massimo Andrea Ugolini (Health).

Central to the discussions was the new Association Agreement with the European Union, which serves as a framework for enhanced economic collaboration. The authorities aim to establish guidelines for fiscal and social cooperation, specifically focusing on harmonizing regulatory models to benefit cross-border workers and pensioners. The summit seeks to reduce double taxation for businesses and resolve long-standing divergences regarding pension benefits.
