-- Scandicorp Releases New Guide Detailing the Cost of Starting a Business in Sweden
Scandicorp has released its latest publication, How Much Does It Cost to Start a Business in Sweden, providing a comprehensive overview of the financial requirements involved in establishing a company in Sweden. The guide outlines both the initial and ongoing expenses that entrepreneurs should expect when entering one of Europe’s most transparent and innovation-driven economies.
The new guide focuses on practical cost analysis — from registration fees and share capital requirements to taxation, accounting, and insurance expenses. It aims to support both domestic and foreign entrepreneurs seeking clarity before launching operations in Sweden’s highly regulated but efficient business environment.
According to Scandicorp, the most common company form in Sweden is the Private Limited Company, or Aktiebolag (AB). Entrepreneurs registering this type of entity can expect to pay an online registration fee of approximately SEK 1,900-2,200, along with a minimum share capital deposit of SEK 25,000. The guide further compares these figures to those of Public Limited Companies (AB publ), where the share capital requirement rises to SEK 500,000.
In addition to statutory fees, the publication examines other common expenses such as legal advice, accounting, and insurance, helping readers estimate first-year costs between SEK 68,900 and SEK 137,200. It also highlights Sweden’s advanced digital infrastructure — including online company registration, e-tax filing, and the secure BankID signature system — which together streamline administration and reduce setup time.
Beyond financial planning, Scandicorp’s guide explores Sweden’s tax framework, where corporate income is taxed at a competitive 22% and capital gains on “business-related shares” are exempt. Employers should also consider the 31.42% social security contribution rate. The guide provides context for how these costs compare internationally and notes that Sweden’s extensive network of double-taxation treaties benefits foreign investors.
Scandicorp also details the country’s support for innovation through startup grants, R&D incentives, and access to venture funding. For many entrepreneurs, understanding these programs is essential to balancing setup costs with available financial aid.
With years of experience helping companies establish themselves across the Nordic region, Scandicorp continues to serve as a trusted partner for international businesses. The full guide, How Much Does It Cost to Start a Business in Sweden, is available on Scandicorp’s website and includes step-by-step details for efficient, compliant company formation.
