Florence TARI Waste Tax Up 4.84% for 2026
Florence operators face a 4.84% TARI increase for 2026 waste collection, while the city studies a higher differential rate for short-term rental managers with four or more apartments.
Regulation Radar
Florence City Council approved a 4.84% increase to the TARI waste tax for 2026 on 29 July, raising the annual levy on every short-term rental unit in the city. The increase is already in force. Operators will see the higher rate reflected in the December balance payment, due by 2 December (The Florentine, 3 Aug 2026). Separately, the city is studying a differential TARI rate for operators managing four or more apartments, a move that would follow the model already adopted by Bologna and Napoli (Corriere della Sera, 21 Jul 2026). That draft study has no approval date and no obligation yet. But the current increase applies now.
