INTERNATIONAL CLIENTS REQUIRING REAL ESTATE AND INHERITANCE LAW ASSISTANCE IN BENEVENTO

• Real estate acquisition near Benevento for German and Swiss buyers
  • German and Swiss nationals represent a significant share of foreign property purchasers in Campania. Whether acquiring a primary residence, a holiday home, or an investment property in the Benevento area, the purchaser must contend with Italian conveyancing procedures, cadastral verifications, building compliance assessments, and a taxation framework distinct from that of Germany or Switzerland. The bilateral conventions for the avoidance of double taxation between Italy and each country have direct implications for property income and capital gains. The firm offers dedicated assistance in German legal terminology where required, with the aim of supporting the client's interests from preliminary inquiry through to registration.

• Cross-border property transactions between France and Benevento
  • French nationals acquiring or inheriting property in Benevento benefit from EU Succession Regulation No. 650/2012, which permits the choice of applicable law for succession matters. However, the Italian conveyancing system, cadastral regime, and building compliance framework remain exclusively governed by Italian law. The firm provides French-speaking clients with structured guidance through each phase of the real estate transaction or succession procedure in Benevento, ensuring alignment with both Italian regulatory requirements and the client's obligations under French fiscal law, including reporting to the Direction générale des finances publiques.

• Selling inherited Italian property from abroad — Benevento and Benevento
  • A non-resident heir wishing to sell inherited property in Benevento faces a series of procedural requirements that must be addressed before any transfer can occur. These include completion of the succession declaration, cadastral alignment, resolution of any building code irregularities, and procurement of the required energy performance certificate. The heir must obtain an Italian tax identification number and may grant a power of attorney to enable the firm to act on their behalf before the notary public. Capital gains taxation for non-resident sellers is governed by specific provisions, and applicable bilateral tax treaties must be considered to avoid double taxation in the country of residence.

• Italian property inheritance for US and Canadian heirs in Benevento
  • A United States or Canadian citizen who has inherited real property in Benevento or in the province of Benevento is required to complete the Italian succession procedure, regardless of residence abroad. The process entails filing a declaration of succession with the competent Revenue Agency, settling applicable inheritance taxes — which differ substantially from US estate tax provisions — and registering the transfer with the local land registry. Where building code violations affect the property, preliminary regularisation may be necessary before any disposition. Remote assistance may be provided for the principal procedural steps, which may allow the heir to fulfil obligations without travelling to Campania, depending on the specific circumstances of the case.

• Purchasing property in Benevento as a British citizen after Brexit
  • Since the United Kingdom's departure from the European Union, British nationals seeking to acquire real estate in Benevento must navigate a distinct regulatory framework. Reciprocity conditions under Italian law must be verified, tax identification must be obtained, and the conveyancing procedure differs markedly from the English system of solicitors and land registry. Furthermore, post-Brexit residence considerations apply where the purchaser intends to reside in the property for extended periods. The firm is available to assist UK clients at each stage of the acquisition process in the Benevento area, from preliminary due diligence and building compliance verification through to notarial deed execution.
