Lucrezia Ciotti The 2027 Budget Law could bring new savings opportunities for families planning to renovate their homes. The bill confirms the furniture bonus , with a 50% income tax deduction, and the household appliances bonus , supported by a €50 million fund. Here are the amounts envisaged, who will be eligible, and the requirements.
2027 Furniture Bonus and Appliance Bonus: Deductions, Vouchers, and Savings Requirements
The renewal of housing incentives is among the measures included in the 2027 Budget Law , currently being examined by Parliament. The budget law aims to support families through two distinct incentives: first, the confirmation of the tax discount for those purchasing new furniture after undertaking a renovation; second, a €50 million fund to incentivize the replacement of old household appliances with more efficient models.
These are the 2027 furniture bonus and the household appliance bonus , two tools that address different expenses and have non-overlapping usage methods. The former allows for recovery of part of the amount spent in subsequent years, while the latter is designed to immediately reduce the bill presented by the retailer. The final terms, however, will depend on the approval of the measure and subsequent implementing provisions.
The 50% IRPEF deduction is expected to be confirmed for next year , with a maximum spending limit of €5.000 . In practical terms, those who fully utilize the ceiling can benefit from a tax relief of €2.500 , spread over ten years in annual installments of €250. The mechanism also applies to lower amounts: with a €4.000 expense, for example, the overall benefit would be €2.000, divided into ten installments of €200. It's important to remember that no immediate credit is granted : the taxpayer gradually recovers the amount through their tax return, within the limits of their IRPEF allowance.
Access to the benefit is conditional on the presence of certain building works. Simply purchasing new furniture for your home is not sufficient: the property must be undergoing renovation work that falls within those permitted by the legislation. For expenses incurred in 2027, the work must have begun after January 1, 2026 , but in any case before the date of purchase of the furniture. However, the taxpayer does not need to have already paid for the work when purchasing it, as long as they can demonstrate that it has actually begun.
Traditionally eligible products include new furnishings for renovated properties, such as beds, wardrobes, bedside tables, chests of drawers, bookcases, tables, chairs, and desks . To take advantage of the tax deduction, you must retain invoices , proof of payments made using the permitted methods, and documents relating to the construction work.
The issue of large household appliances, however, remains open . Until 2026, the legislation also included these products, provided they met certain energy standards: Class A for ovens, Class E for washing machines, washer-dryers, and dishwashers, and Class F for refrigerators and freezers. The provision regarding the 2027 renewal, however, does not specifically mention this category. We will therefore have to wait for the final text to determine whether these appliances will continue to be included in the deduction linked to renovation work.
A second incentive directly targets those who need to replace an older household appliance. The bill provides a €50 million budget for the 2027 appliance bonus , with the aim of encouraging the spread of products with lower energy consumption . Unlike the furniture bonus, the voucher does not entail deferred tax recovery: its purpose is to reduce the amount paid at the time of purchase.
Furniture bonus and household appliance bonus: when you can apply for both
The same family can benefit from both incentives , but it's important to pay attention to the nature of the expenses incurred. The ministerial provisions governing the voucher stipulate that it cannot be combined with other tax incentives for the same purchase. This means that an appliance purchased using the incentive cannot simultaneously benefit from the furniture bonus tax deduction.
However, it's possible for a person to use both tools for separate purchases. For example, someone renovating their home could deduct the cost of a new wardrobe and claim the voucher for the purchase of a washing machine. Naturally, each transaction must meet the conditions set forth by the respective incentive and cannot benefit from two incentives for the same expense.
To know the final picture, we will have to wait for parliamentary approval of the 2027 budget law.
