Frequently Asked Questions (vanliga frågor)

Can I claim home office equipment on my Swedish tax return?

Only if your employer requires you to work from home and does not provide equipment, AND the items are used exclusively for work. Standard remote work without an explicit employer mandate does not qualify for general desk/chair deductions.

How does the work commute travel deduction (*reseavdrag*) work?

You can deduct public transit or driving expenses exceeding SEK 11,000 per year. Car travel requires saving at least 2 hours round-trip per day compared to public transit.

What is the tax deduction for double housing (*dubbel bosättning*)?

If you take a job in another town and maintain a double household, you can deduct actual accommodation rent plus standard daily meal allowances (SEK 145/day) for up to 2 years.
