How tax works in Sweden
Nordics · SEK
Sweden funds its world-class welfare state through high but flat municipal income tax (~32% on average) plus a 20% state surtax that kicks in above SEK 615,300. The 7% pension contribution is largely offset by a tax credit. Employer payroll taxes of 31.42% on top of gross are not visible to employees.
On a gross of 900 000 kr per year, expect roughly 504 664 kr net — about 56% of gross lands in your bank account.
