Business mileage rates for Sweden
VehicleRate
Car 2.50 kr a kilometre

A single flat rate, with no annual allowance to use up and nothing to reset.

Skatteverket publishes the figure as 25 kr per mil. A Swedish mil is ten kilometres, which is where 2.50 kr a kilometre comes from. The same rate applies whether your employer pays it tax-free or you claim it as a deduction for business driving in your own car.

What that adds up to

15,000 business kilometres in a year comes to 37,500.00 kr (15,000 km at 2.50 kr a kilometre).

Keeping the record

Whatever the rate, the claim only stands up if the journeys behind it do. That means the date, where you went, how far, and why it was business. Reclaim records each trip as you drive, prices it at the rate above, and turns the lot into a claim you can send.

Rates change when Skatteverket changes them. Reclaim picks new rates up without waiting for an app update, and old trips keep the rate that applied on the day they happened.
