Farewell to the most beloved bonus, thousands of Italians were waiting for it | The end is written.

Bonuses expiring in 2025: what's new for families and businesses? The end of a cycle of incentives.

2025 will mark a significant turning point for those who have benefited from tax incentives and deductions in recent years. With the final approval of the Budget Law, many measures currently in place will not be renewed. This change affects various sectors, from construction to mobility, including energy and technology. After years in which incentives have served as a support tool for citizens and businesses, the Government has decided to drastically reduce the range of incentives available.

Among the measures that will not be confirmed is the Ecosismabonus , intended for the energy retrofitting of common areas of buildings. It is not expected to be renewed for the following year. The traditional Ecobonus will remain in effect, but with reduced rates that vary based on the type of home. The boiler bonus, which allowed for a deduction of up to 65% of expenses incurred for high-efficiency systems, will also no longer be available, marking the end of an incentive that for years supported the replacement of obsolete systems.

Another measure that will not see the light of day is the so-called green bonus. This subsidy, which allowed for a tax deduction for gardening and landscaping expenses, was welcomed by many families who decided to redevelop their spaces. Starting next year, however, those who wish to invest in gardens and terraces will have to cover the costs without any tax relief.

Two relatively recent bonuses will also be eliminated: the one for the purchase of pellet stoves and the one for water purification systems. Both were introduced in the form of tax credits, with the aim of supporting more sustainable consumption and a better quality of life at home. However, these subsidies will no longer be available for application.

Electric mobility and fuel outgoing

The mobility sector will be one of the hardest hit by the streamlining of incentives. The subsidy for charging stations, which covered up to 80% of the cost, will be abolished, while incentives for electric cars will be reduced . The fuel bonus for private sector employees, which guaranteed up to €200, will also not be offered again. The government is aiming for a comprehensive review of fringe benefits, preferring to raise the tax exemption thresholds rather than confirm specific vouchers.

Technology-related bonuses have also disappeared. Specifically, the incentive for purchasing TVs and decoders compatible with the new digital standards, which provided up to €50 in contributions, will no longer be active . The same fate awaits the Internet bonus, introduced to support the activation of high-speed connections and broadband subscriptions. This tool, especially useful for families in less-covered areas, will no longer be included in the next Budget Law.

A rationalization of resources

The underlying theme of these decisions is the government's desire to streamline incentives and allocate resources to sectors deemed more strategic. The idea is not to eliminate support entirely, but to scale it back and concentrate it on specific areas, such as renewable energy and measures for the ecological transition. This inevitably leads to the elimination of some highly popular incentives, which are now considered less of a priority.

For those planning work or purchases eligible for expiring bonuses, taking advantage of the benefits while they're available can make a difference in terms of savings, especially for expensive projects like installing energy systems or purchasing technological devices. Starting next year, the tax relief landscape will be significantly different and more limited, marking the end of a period of widespread and generalized bonuses.
