Planning to Buy or Renovate Property in Italy? Don’t Let Environmental Restrictions Block Your Project
Italy is a country of timeless beauty, but this beauty is protected by strict landscape and environmental laws.
If you’re planning to buy, renovate, or build on Italian land—especially in areas like the countryside, coastlines, or historic city centers—you must comply with national and regional environmental regulations.
Fines, blocked projects, and years of legal delays are risks you can’t afford.
MG Law is here to protect your investment and secure all necessary authorizations.
What Are Landscape & Environmental Restrictions in Italy?
H3: Italian Code of Cultural Heritage and Landscape (Legislative Decree No. 42/2004)
This national law regulates:
- Protected landscapes and historic sites
- Coastal and rural areas
- Cultural heritage properties
Whether you are:
- Buying a property in historic towns or coastal areas
- Planning a renovation or new construction
- Developing tourism or hospitality projects
You must obtain official permits and authorizations to proceed legally and avoid costly penalties.
