What it does


In Sweden the employer withholds preliminary tax from the salary using Skatteverket's tax tables. The table number is your total municipal tax rate, the municipality plus the region, about 29% to 35%, and it already includes the basic allowance, the earned income tax credit, the general pension contribution with its credit and the state income tax of 20% above 643,000 kr a year. Employees pay no other social fees: the employer's contributions come on top of the salary. This calculator uses the official 2026 tables.

How to use it


  1. Type your gross monthly salary, or the yearly salary.
  2. Choose your municipality and whether you are a member of the Church of Sweden, or choose the tax table directly.
  3. See the preliminary tax and the salary after tax per month and per year.

The arithmetic runs in your browser. Nothing you type is sent anywhere and nothing is stored, so you can use these with real numbers.
