How take-home pay is calculated in Sweden

  • Municipal tax (about 32% on average) is charged on income after the basic deduction (grundavdrag).
  • State income tax of 20% applies to taxable income above SEK 643,000 a year (2026).
  • The job tax credit (jobbskatteavdrag), strengthened in 2026, and a small earned-income credit reduce the municipal tax.
  • The 7% general pension fee is fully offset by a matching tax credit, so it does not change take-home pay.

For employees under 66 who are not church members. The public service fee and burial fee are not included. Figures are estimates, not tax advice.
