When it comes to the recently drawn up interest rate on withholding tax over SEK 30,000, it is ticking starting from February 13. Therefore, if you know that you have sold housing or securities with a profit, you should make sure that there is a surplus on the tax account by February 12, so you do not have to get an interest suction.
“Prepare information about your sold home for the declaration, you can get help to calculate what you should report in the declaration if you sold a home. There you can also save your calculations and “pick up” them when you declare through the E-service Income Declaration 1 “, she writes to News24 and adds:
“Simply put, you can say that your employer or pension payer deducts as much tax as if you only had income from them. If you also have a property fee to pay or have made a profit that you need to declare, you can almost assume that you have to pay withholding tax. Another common reason for having to pay withholding tax is that it is only your main payer who withdraw tax according to your tax table. Other payers deduct 30 percent tax and then the deducted tax does not always cover the tax you finally have to pay ”.
