Establishing business in Sweden

Performing business activities via a branch or a subsidiary will in most cases result in legal and tax compliance issues in Sweden. Most commonly these issues arise in connection to employees living or working in Sweden.

Some of the compliance issues which may arise are 

• Bookkeeping following Swedish GAP,
• Bookkeeping kept or readily accessible in Sweden
• Possible Swedish invoicing,
• VAT reporting and payments on at least a quarterly basis,
• Wage payments and tax reporting,
• Treatment of employer outlays,
• Leasing of company cars,
• Pension payment according to agreed pension plan,
• Wage reporting and payment of social contributions on a monthly basis,
• Filing statement of earnings and deductions,
• Establishing annual reports of accounts and balancing of books,
• Filing annual corporate income tax return,
• Fulfilling transfer pricing requirements. 

We can minimise your compliance and costs

You pick the employee and we assume the employer obligations. With our solution you can continue providing services to your Swedish and Nordic customers without the administrative burden and with a reduced tax risk. By assuming your employer obligations, we assume all tax and labour law obligations in Sweden.

We ensure that the employee receives monthly wages, that outlays are reimbursed, that social contributions are paid and reported in a timely fashion, that the statement of earnings and deductions is filed and that payments are made in accordance with the pension plan. If necessary, a lease of a company car can also be provided through a third-party provider.

If you already have a branch or subsidiary in Sweden, we can seamlessly transfer your current employees and deregister your establishment in Sweden.
