How can an EU blue card holder stay in Italy and work remotely without facing tax or permit issues?

I have an EU blue card and work remotely with a company in Germany. Can I relocate to Italy to continue working remotely with the same employer but not have to pay taxes there or how does it work?

It is not possible to move to Italy and work remotely for the same employer. You may change EU Member State and be hired by another employer after holding the EU Blue Card for 18 months in the first Member State. In any case, the obligation to pay taxes in the Italian territory is not excluded even if you are working remotely for a foreign employer.
