Adjust for your actual salary

The table above uses the Engineering Manager median. Enter your own gross salary below for a precise figure.

National-average kommunalskatt only. Your real municipality's tax rate can be up to ~3.5 percentage points lower (Österåker, 28.93%) or higher (Dorotea, 35.65%) than the 32.38% national average used here. This calculator also does not model grundavdrag or jobbskatteavdrag, so it runs slightly conservative (higher tax) versus a real payslip.

Calculations use the 2026 national-average kommunalskatt (32.38%, per Statistics Sweden) and the 2026 statlig inkomstskatt brytpunkt (660,400 SEK/year, per Skatteverket) at a flat 20% above that threshold. Does not model your specific municipality's actual rate (28.93%–35.65% range), grundavdrag (basic allowance), jobbskatteavdrag (earned income tax credit), or allmän pensionsavgift (the 7% employee pension fee, which is fully offset by a matching tax credit for virtually all taxpayers). Because grundavdrag and jobbskatteavdrag are both omitted, actual take-home pay is typically somewhat higher than shown here. For precise figures, consult Skatteverket or a tax professional.
