TAXATION

For taxation purposes it is necessary to determine the country of residence. The Nordic taxation agreement is based on the principle that income is to be taxed either in the home country or the country you work in. The population register and the tax registers do not coincide in concern to settling down, the tax authorities should therefore be contacted to decide on which country you are taxable to. This is to avoid double taxation. If the situation is unclear, the country where you have a permanent domicile will be used. The moving notification to the tax and population register authorities in the country of departure should be done in advance, advice can also be obtained.  It is important to mention whether the stay will be permanent. This because the state in which you are working has the right to tax you and generally you must also file a tax return to that country. Normally, the year you move you are required to file a tax return in both countries.
