Correct your preliminary tax

If your income seems to be higher or lower than expected, you need to fill in a preliminary income tax return and send it to the Swedish Tax Agency.

In some cases you are forced by law to correct your preliminary tax

It is always appropriate to submit a preliminary tax return if your income seems to be higher than expected. But if it seems to be around 30 percent higher or more, but not less than one price base amount, you are obligated to do it according to Swedish law.
