- Skatteverket registers the business activities of a company in the taxation database
- The registration is done using codes according to the Swedish Standard Industrial Classification (SNI)
- The SNI codes are then transferred to the General Business Register maintained by SCB
- The SNI codes do not determine the tax liability or entitlement to deductions or refunds
- The SNI codes are also not relevant for F-tax approval
- The actual business activities of a company, not the SNI codes, are important for assessing industrial activities for energy taxation.
