Register a company in Sweden, the Nordic unicorn factory.

Yes. With an apostilled power of attorney the founding, capital confirmation and Bolagsverket registration run remotely; F-tax and VAT follow. Banks decide their own meetings, and a clean file often onboards by video. We pick the right first door for your profile.

Turnkey registration starts from €2,400 including Bolagsverket fees and the first year of the registered address. With a bank account arranged, packages start from €4,200. The SEK 25,000 capital stays the company's money. Renewals with accounting run from €1,800 a year.

20.6% on profits, VAT at 25% on domestic supplies, and employer contributions of 31.42% on payroll - the big line. Dividends to you follow the 3:12 rules: 20% within your annual allowance, more above it. We model the whole chain, salary included, before you commit.

Sweden's framework for closely-held companies. Each year you earn a dividend allowance (a base amount, or a salary-based amount that grows with payroll), taxed at just 20%; dividends beyond it climb toward ~52% salary rates. The craft is setting the owner's salary to maximise the allowance - a yearly calculation our accountants run as standard, because done right it changes everything.

True and famous: inheritance tax abolished in 2005, wealth tax in 2007, by governments that watched capital leave and reversed course. A Swedish founder's company passes to heirs untaxed and its value carries no annual levy. It is the great counterweight to the payroll costs, and few outside Sweden know it.

Qualifying foreign specialists, researchers and executives recruited to Sweden pay tax on only 75% of salary for up to seven years, with a salary-threshold route that skips the qualification debate. For senior hires it materially trims Sweden's headline personal rates. The application has a deadline after arrival; we file it with the hire.

Half the board and the managing director must reside in the EEA. Non-EEA founders solve it with an EEA-resident board member (ours available) or a Bolagsverket exemption in qualifying cases. Settled on day one, it never delays the registration.

Nordic-thorough. SEB, Swedbank and Handelsbanken run deep post-scandal KYC on foreign-owned companies (ownership chain, substance, flows) and reward clean files with excellent SEK/EUR banking. Fintechs cover the operating layer faster. We prepare the file to their standard and pick the first door.

Denmark wins on registry speed, minimal employer costs and holding rules. Estonia wins for reinvesting startups on deferral. Sweden wins when the market itself, the talent pool or the unicorn network is the point - and its abolished wealth-and-inheritance taxes beat both for founders planning decades ahead.

Plan one to two weeks: days for documents and the board solution, capital confirmation, then Bolagsverket (three to ten days) and Skatteverket registrations. Banking adds one to two weeks. The 3:12 and expert-relief planning start at incorporation, because both reward early design.
