Sweden tax residency rules
Threshold: 183 days · Day Count · Calendar year (Jan 1 – Dec 31)
Sweden treats you as a resident if you're domiciled in Sweden (true home) OR have habitual abode (continuous stay 6+ months) OR an 'essential connection' (post-departure rules apply for 5 years). Residents pay up to ~52% combined.
- Continuous 6-month stay = habitual abode = residency.
- 5-year 'essential connection' tail after departure can keep ex-residents Swedish-taxed.
