Drinking water bonus 2023: what it is and what it is for

What do the incentives provide for?

They provide a tax credit equal to 50% of the expenses incurred for the purchase and installation of systems that make it possible to rationalise water use and reduce the consumption of plastic containers.

The maximum limit

Each individual is entitled to a reimbursement of up to 1,000 euros per dwelling.

Work carried out on properties used for business activities is entitled to a reimbursement of expenses of up to 5,000 euros.

How to obtain it

To apply for the contribution, you must submit complete documentation of the expenses incurred, such as an electronic invoice or a commercial document containing the applicant’s tax code.

Recommendation

The amount of eligible expenses must be reported on the Agenzia delle Entrate website between 1 and 28 February of the year following the one in which the cost was incurred. We suggest that you check the rules before applying for the relief and consult an external professional or the company that supplies the products, which sometimes also handles the paperwork for the deduction, so as to avoid mistakes that could cause you to lose the relief.
