Skeppsbron Skatt’s team that specializes in international cross border taxation assist individuals with a wide range of tax matters. We support clients who have foreign employment income, foreign capital income, investments abroad, equity holdings in other jurisdictions, or those who have recently moved to Sweden and still have financial ties in other countries. Our team provides guidance in all of these situations to ensure that you are taxed correctly under Swedish domestic rules.
We offer comprehensive services including advice on the taxation of foreign income, assistance with Swedish tax returns, applications to the Swedish Tax Agency, and support in other personal tax matters.
The Swedish Tax Agency releases the pre-printed tax return, Inkomstdeklaration 1, at the beginning of March. The filing deadline for submitting the tax return is May 4, 2026. Skeppsbron Skatt can apply for a bureau an extension on your behalf, which extends the deadline until the middle of June 2026.
All individuals who are considered tax residents of Sweden are required to file a tax return and are liable for tax on their global income. Sweden has entered double tax treaties with many countries, why there can be limitations on Sweden’s right to tax certain types of income. Skeppsbron Skatt has extensive experience in navigating these rules and ensuring the correct tax outcome.
If you have worked abroad during your career and earned foreign pension, it is important to be aware that many foreign pension schemes are not equivalent to Swedish pension plans. As a result, a tax obligation in Sweden may arise even before any pension payment begins. Skeppsbron Skatt has extensive knowledge of foreign pension arrangements and the Swedish tax treatment that applies to them.
Please feel free to contact Skeppsbron Skatt if you have any questions or if you would like assistance with your individual tax return for the 2025 income year.
