What is F-skatt?

F-skatt (företagsskatt) is the Swedish proof of entrepreneurship. With F-skatt you declare that you are responsible for paying your own income tax and social contributions. Without F-skatt, your client is required to withhold these amounts.

  • Registration via form SKV 4632 at Skatteverket
  • Without F-skatt: client withholds ~30% from your payment
  • Online application possible via skatteverket.se
  • Annual declaration required after registration

Why is F-skatt important?

Without F-skatt registration:

  • Your client withholds income tax from your invoice
  • Your client pays social contributions on your behalf
  • You are treated as an employee instead of an entrepreneur for tax purposes
  • Reclaiming is possible but takes months
