K4 - Sale of securities

With the appendix K4 - Försäljning av värdepapper, you calculate the year's profit and loss on different securities. You find it under Year-end closing - Basis for tax return - Tax appendices.

The result from the appendix is ​​transferred to the section Tax return INK1 and the following sub-pages:

  • Interest income, rental income etc.

  • Interests paid etc.

  • Capital gains and losses

The correct number of K4 forms is automatically created under Tax forms.

More information on securities can be obtained through the Swedish Tax Agency's pages for Försäljning av värdepapper and Aktiehistorik.

Please note that profit/loss information that is pre-filled on the main appendix (INK1) should not be entered on the K4. Instead, those amounts should be entered in the open fields in the Tax return INK1.
