-- Scandicorp Launches Financial Compliance Services for Sweden-Based Startups
Scandicorp, a leading Nordic corporate services provider, has launched a new service suite designed to help startups in Sweden navigate corporate tax, VAT compliance, and financial regulations. This strategic expansion comes amid a surge in international interest in Sweden’s tech and innovation ecosystem.
Sweden continues to attract foreign entrepreneurs with its transparent regulatory environment, strong infrastructure, and stable economy. However, setting up and operating a business in compliance with Swedish financial rules presents challenges that require in-depth local knowledge. Scandicorp’s newly launched services address this gap by offering practical, end-to-end support tailored specifically for international founders.
One of the core components of the offering is support with Sweden’s corporate taxation, which is levied at a flat rate of 22%. This rate is competitive compared to many other jurisdictions and can be reduced further through profit allocation reserves. Additionally, Swedish tax law allows for indefinite carryforward of business losses, enabling startups to optimize their tax planning over the long term. Losses, however, cannot be carried back to prior years.
Another area of focus is VAT (Value-Added Tax). The standard VAT rate in Sweden is 25%, with reduced rates of 12% and 6% for qualifying goods and services. Scandicorp provides guidance on VAT registration, return filings, and regulatory deadlines to ensure businesses remain compliant and avoid late penalties.
Scandicorp also helps clients manage international tax considerations, including interest deductibility, withholding tax exemptions, and transfer pricing rules. Sweden imposes no withholding tax on interest paid to foreign lenders and offers generous dividend tax relief under its extensive network of tax treaties. These rules are particularly favorable to foreign investors and holding companies operating in Sweden.
Beyond tax and VAT, Scandicorp assists clients with company registration, financial statement filing, accounting services, and regulatory correspondence. The company provides registered office services and local directors to meet Swedish compliance standards and offers the option of keeping accounts in either Swedish Krona (SEK) or Euros.
“Our goal is to make Sweden’s regulatory landscape accessible and manageable for startups entering the market,” said a Scandicorp representative. “We handle the complexity so founders can focus on building their business.”
