Questions and answers on Tax reduction

To get a Tax reduction for the gifts you give to us, we need your social security number. Submit your personal details for Tax reduction. We submit the control data for the gifts we receive to the Swedish Tax Agency, so that your Tax reduction is filled in automatically in your income tax return.

Keep in mind that single gifts of less than 200 Swedish kronor (SEK) do not count towards the tax reduction, even if the total for the year is 2,000 Swedish kronor (SEK).

  • You must have given at least 200 Swedish kronor (SEK) per occasion.
  • You must donate at least 2 000 Swedish kronor (SEK) during the year, to us or to other organisations that are approved gift recipients.
  • You must have reached the age of 18 by December 31 of the year in which the gift is made.
  • You have to pay tax on all your income in Sweden, regardless of which country the income comes from.
  • To be eligible for the tax credit, you must also have enough tax to offset the tax credit against.

The tax reduction is 25% of the amount of the gift. The maximum deduction is 3,000 Swedish kronor (SEK) , which corresponds to gifts totaling 12,000 Swedish kronor (SEK) in one year.

If you have given less than 2 000 Swedish kronor (SEK) in one year, you do not get a Tax reduction.

 

Calculation example 1: If you intend to give 150 Swedish kronor (SEK) , you can increase the amount to 200 Swedish kronor (SEK) without it costing you more in the end. You will get back 50 Swedish kronor (SEK) on your tax.

Calculation example 2: If you give a gift of SEK 300, you can raise it to SEK 400 without paying more because you get SEK 100 back through tax.
