Companies that have been affected financially by the COVID-19 pandemic can apply for temporary payment respite in connection with employer contributions, deducted tax and VAT. Payment respite is granted for one year from the date of the Swedish Tax Agency’s decision notification. Payment respite can also be granted for annual VAT (one period) reported between 27 December 2019 and 17 January 2022. It is possible to apply for a one-year extension of the respite period when it ends.
