What is usufruct and how is it calculated in Italian law?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n

The usufruct (usufrutto) consists of the right to enjoy the property, deriving any usefulness that this can give, in respect of its economic destination (article 981 Italian Civil Code).<\/span> The usufructuary has therefore the possession of the building (article 982 Italian Civil Code).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n
The right of the owner of the property, in the presence of a usufructuary, is called “bare ownership” (nuda propriet\u00e0).<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The usufructuary can use the property directly or grant its use to third parties, through a lease, rent or loan contract.<\/span> This cannot be the case if the seller reserves the right to use or live the property instead of the usufruct, but for this we recommend reading our article <\/span>Differenze between usufruct and right of residence (housing) in Italian Law<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

If it was not expressly forbidden at the time of its establishment, the usufructuary can also assign the right of usufruct, for a certain time or for its entire duration, provided that the right is extinguished within the term provided for in the articles of incorporation, or otherwise<\/span> on the death of the original usufructuary (article 980 Italian Civil Code).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

After this introduction, we now come to the real question: how is the value of the usufruct calculated for the Italian law?<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
The value of the usufruct and bare ownership is obtained based on the coefficients periodically established by the Ministry of the Economy and Finance in relation to the legal interest rate.<\/span><\/span> The relative tables are dictated for tax purposes, but being the expression of the statistical probabilities of residual life, they are normally used to define the relationship between the value of full ownership and that of the bare ownership object of the<\/span> transfer.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\nThe following are the calculation percentages in effect as of 1st January 2019, following the change in the legal interest (from 0.3% to 0.8%) of the fair Interdirective Decree of 19th December 2018 (in the Official Journal no.<\/span> 301 of 28th December 2018).<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
