Frequently asked questions
What changed in Denmark in 2026?
The old 15% top tax was replaced by a 7.5% middle tax (from DKK 641,200), a 7.5% top tax (from DKK 777,900) and a 5% top-top tax (from DKK 2,592,700).
Is Swedish church fee included?
No — the municipal rate here excludes the burial fee (about 0.3%) and church fee (about 1%) if you're a member. Public pension contributions (7%) are fully offset by a tax credit, so they don't change net pay.
What about Finland?
Finland's work-income deduction and municipal deductions make a reliable quick estimate hard — use Vero.fi's tax calculator for Finnish salaries.
