Model Assumptions
- •Single resident; FY 2026 rates. Representative municipality: Stockholm.
- •Municipal income tax (32%) folded into the combined bracket schedule alongside the 20% state income tax (above SEK 643,000). Rates vary by municipality (29%–35%).
- •Grundavdrag (basic deduction): SEK 31,500 — simplified; the statutory grundavdrag is income-dependent and may be higher at lower salaries.
- •Jobbskatteavdrag (earned income tax credit) approximated; calibrated for SEK 350k–700k salary range. Effective rates above SEK 1M may be 4–6pp higher than official Skatteverket figures.
- •Employee allmän pensionsavgift (7%, capped SEK 47,100) is included in social contributions. In practice it is fully offset by a 100% skattereduktion (tax reduction), so the net cost to the employee is ~nil; this model does not include that credit.
- •Excludes investment income (ISK/kapitalvinst), wealth tax, and itemised deductions.
