Genoa port boarding tax legal dispute
Overview
The Liguria Regional Administrative Court (TAR) has upheld a municipal surcharge on port boarding rights in Genoa, rejecting appeals from several shipping companies and operators. The companies, including Assarmatori, Assagenti, Grandi Navi Veloci, Moby, and Stazioni Marittime, argued that the municipality should have utilized Irpef surcharges instead of the 3-euro fee per passenger.
The court ruled the tax is a legitimate “autonomous municipal tribute” rather than a service fee, meaning it does not require a direct link to specific port services. Local officials stated the measure is essential to secure 25 million euros in state contributions intended for the city’s financial recovery.
