Tax amnesty programs have been implemented at both the municipal and regional levels in Sicily to assist taxpayers in regularizing unpaid debts without penalties or interest. In the municipality of Sciacca, the “definizione agevolata” program saw over 2,200 enrollments following a July 31 deadline. The initiative, designed to reduce tax disputes and support citizens and businesses, is expected to generate approximately €6 million in revenue through single or installment payments. On a broader scale, the Sicilian Regional Government has reintroduced the “straccia bollo” measure. This program allows for the regularization of unpaid car taxes, government concession taxes, and other regional property revenues owed up to December 31, 2025. While the measure has been published in the Official Gazette, it awaits an implementing decree from the Regional Assessor for the Economy to define specific operational procedures. Regional President Renato Schifani noted the decision to repeat the measure was driven by the success of previous iterations. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-19: Sicily reintroduces ‘straccia bollo’ tax amnesty measure Sicily has reintroduced the ‘straccia bollo’ tax amnesty, allowing taxpayers to settle unpaid car taxes and regional revenues through 2025 without penalties or interest, pending an upcoming implementing decree. 6 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/sicily-reintroduces-straccia-bollo-tax-amnesty-measure ### 2026-08-02: Comune di Sciacca tax amnesty sees over 2,200 enrollments Sciacca's tax amnesty attracted over 2,200 participants, aiming to raise about €6 million and allow debtors to settle local taxes without penalties, with payments due by November. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/comune-di-sciacca-tax-amnesty-sees-over-2200-enrollments --- Cite as: Tax amnesty programs in Sicily.
