Reports & Deadlines (7 questions)

What happens when I check the box Done on the company reports page?

The report is then considered to have been filed to the current authority. The report disappears from the Reports: Todo view and appears on the Reports: Done page. Also, report reminders will not be sent for the report. The service displays 13 months of report history regardless of whether a report has been marked as Done or not.

What are the implications that I see the text "Some data for this company are still missing" on the company page?

This message is shown due to that you have selected "I will fill in this later" for one or several fields for the company added. This will have the implication that reports are not shown correct in the service. Go to the Company page, select Edit and update the information for the company in this or these fields to complete the data for the company and click Save.

Is the last reporting date for a report the date when the report have to be filed in digital or paper format?

The last reporting date is then the report has to be filed in digital format at the latest. Sometimes the last date can be different when you file a report in paper format.

How does the reports change for my company when I change the company attributes?

If you for example change from yearly VAT to quarterly VAT, the report for yearly VAT will still in most situations be present on the Todo reports page. This is because of that you make these changes during a financial year. You still have to report the VAT from the beginning of the financial year which has already started until the date you changed to quarterly VAT reporting. After this only the quarterly VAT reports will be present on the Todo reports page. When changing the attributes for a company you are asked to enter the date when the changes are valid from. If you do not enter a date here, today's date will be used.

What do the different colored icons and highlighting mean on the reports page?

On the reports page, we use colored icons and highlighting to help you quickly identify which reports need your immediate attention:

Orange Circle: Indicates a report that is due today. This takes highest priority and should be filed immediately.

Blue Clock: Shows the next priority report(s) with the earliest upcoming due date. These reports should be prepared and filed soon.

Red Triangle: Marks overdue reports that have passed their deadline and need immediate attention to avoid penalties.

Reports with the next priority due date are also highlighted with a blue background and left border to make them easily visible in your report list.

VAT & Tax Questions (7 questions)

Where can I find the VAT declaration form?

VAT is declared to the Swedish Tax Agency either digitally on their website or physically with a form. VAT form is available on the Swedish Tax Agency's website. To reach it, first go to their website Skatteverket.se. Then, in the main menu, select Företag (Companies) and then Moms (VAT). Then select Deklarera moms (Declare VAT) in the menu on the left side of the page or further down on the page. Here you will find information on how to declare VAT digitally or with a form. If you have not received a physical VAT declaration form and wish to declare with physical form, you can order a new VAT declaration form here.

I change from quarterly VAT to annual VAT - why are there out-of-date reports in the list?

For example, if you change from quarterly VAT to yearly VAT in September 2025, the VAT-report July-September with the latest reporting date 2025-11-12 will still be included in the report list. This is because the change was made in September, which is before the end of the accounting period July-September. You then need to first report VAT for this period for your company. It is important not to miss it. After that, the company should report VAT once a year according to the change you made.

When should I report annual VAT?

Swedish companies that report VAT once a year should report VAT on different dates depending on whether the company conducts trade with EU countries, i.e. during the year has bought or sold goods or services from/to suppliers/customers within the EU (outside Sweden). Many companies make purchases from suppliers from countries within the EU, even if they do not know it. For example several large companies which offer digital services are invoicing from Ireland.

We therefore recommend that you check this for your company if you are not sure, and report the VAT according to this. You can see the dates which are applicable when adding a company as a registered user or when you try out the service.

I cannot find a report for reminder to pay monthly taxes. Can I add this myself?

It is possible to add a reminder that reminds you to pay preliminary tax, even if this is not a formal report. You do this by logging in and clicking on Company in the main menu. Then click on Edit (if you have entered more companies, first select which company you want to change information for). Check the box for "Show Preliminary Tax Payments for this company in Reports list". If you want the changes to be valid from a certain date (eg that you have recently started paying charged preliminary tax), enter this, otherwise you will not make a change in the field "Changes are valid from". Click on Save. You will now receive reminders for when debited preliminary tax must be paid to the Swedish Tax Agency at the latest in the same way as report reminders.

I see the report Periodic sammanställning tjänster in the list of reports. What kind of report is this?

Periodisk sammanställning (EC-list) services is a report submitted by companies to Skatteverket (the Swedish Tax Agency) to declare the value of sales and purchases of services sold to companies in other EU countries. All types of companies, regardless of company form, that sell services to EU countries must submit Periodisk sammanställning. Periodisk sammanställning services is normally submitted quarterly. If you have checked the checkbox Services sales to EU countries for your company, the reporting dates are displayed in the service. More information on Periodic sammanställning tjänster.

Should K10 appendix to Inkomstdeklaration 1 be submitted on my behalf as an individual?

Yes, it is correct that you as an individual should submit the K10 appendix as an appendix to your private income declaration (Inkomstdeklaration 1). The reason why the reminder you receive via email from the service is phrased in a way that suggests the K10 appendix should be submitted for your limited company is to remind you of the connection to the limited company.

We have started an AB but will start our business later this summer. Do I still need to report VAT now or do I do so when our business is started?

You normally do not have to report any VAT before the time for which you registered for VAT or before when you started the business. However, if you make purchases of things that are to be used in the business (goods, services, equipment, etc.) and want to deduct VAT for this, you need to register for VAT from that date, e.g. now in the spring. You then need to report VAT from the date you choose. Otherwise, you can choose the date for when you start your business and sell to customers etc. as the start date for VAT registration and you then need to report VAT from that date.

Company Management (4 questions)

Which financial year should be selected for a company with an extended or abbreviated fiscal year?

If the company has an extended financial year (which can be selected when starting the company) you should select the financial year that the company has during a normal year. For example: You register with the authorities that company should normally have the financial year January - December, but that the first financial year is extended from the start of the company on August 1, 2024 to December 31, 2025. In this case, the financial year January - December shall be selected for the company in Redovisningsdatum. If the financial year is shortened, the same principle applies, that is to say, that for the company in Redovisningsdatum you must select the financial year that the company has during a normal year.

I have recently completed the accounting year for my aktiebolag and prepared an annual report which I sent to Bolagsverket. Do I now need to send you any documents?

Redovisningsdatum is a service that helps you to be reminded of important reports for your company, including the annual report for aktiebolag. The annual report shall be submitted, just as you have done, to Bolagsverket and should not need to be sent to us. No other documents such as a statement from the annual general meeting or comment from the board of directors should not be sent to Redovisningsdatum.

Do we need to submit Årsredovisning and Inkomstdeklaration 2 for our newly started aktiebolag even if we have not started operations? We have therefore not registered the company as an employer, for f-skatt or VAT.

Aktiebolag need to submit Årsredovisning and Inkomstdeklaration 2, even if the company had no business. If your aktiebolag is not registered as an employer, for f-tax and for VAT, you normally do not need to submit Arbetsgivardeklaration or Momsdeklaration. But remember that you need to register as an employer if you start paying salaries or other compensation to employees and if you start selling products or services in the company you normally need to register for VAT.

Can I keep my aktiebolag dormant?

It is not possible to notify the Swedish Companies Registration Office (Bolagsverket) or the Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket) that the limited company is dormant. What you can do to show that you are not conducting any business in the company, meaning that you are neither selling nor buying anything, is to deregister it for VAT (moms), F-tax (f-skatt), and as an employer (arbetsgivare) (depending on what you previously registered for the company).

However, it is important to remember that you still have to submit Årsredovisning to the Swedish Companies Registration Office (Bolagsverket) and Inkomstdeklaration 2 to the Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket) for the limited company, even if you have no activity in it. To avoid having to do this, you would need to liquidate the company.
