When you open the submission page, your tax forms will automatically be checked for common errors and inconsistencies. If any, an error message is displayed with an explanation of the error. By selecting Go to check, you can navigate directly to the basis to complete, correct or update the information.

You can at any time run the check by selecting the Tax return check button , available from the Tax calculation, Annual report and Tax forms sections.

The following submission methods are available:

Automatic transfer of files via Skatteverket's API

Visma Skatt & Bokslut Pro handles Skatteverket's submission method Inkomstdeklaration 2 - Lämna. All tax forms belonging to Tax return INK2 can be submitted via this service. This applies to INK2, INK2R, INK2S, N3B, N4, N7, N8 and N9. In other words, you do not need to use the old file transfer service (SRU) for Tax return INK2.

Depending on when your financial year ends and when you are trying to complete your tax return, the service may not be available at all times:

  • For financial years that end January - April, the service opens in the end of April

  • For financial years that end in June- July, the service opens in the end of June

  1. From the Submission method drop-down, select Income statement 2 - submit (API).

  2. Specify the details for the reporting agent (information about your accounting office).
    1. The pre-filled information is collected from My Services on vismaspcs.se. The information used is from the user that is currently logged on to Visma Advisor. The information can be changed by activating Edit/restore information provider. You can also log in to My Services on vismaspcs.se and make the changes there. Just note that in that case, the changes will apply to Visma Advisor as well as all companies in Visma Skatt & Bokslut Pro.

      If you want to provide other information to the tax return, you can do so via a so-called free text letter. You create the free text letter under Tax appendices.

  1. Select Submit.

The review document will now be transferred to Skatteverket. The time and date for the transfer will be visible in the Last transfer field together with the current status.

For the tax return to be considered as submitted, the signatory or declaration agent need to log in to Mina Sidor at Skatteverket and sign the document. A direct link is available when submitted. You can also select the link icon to copy the link and then paste it, for instance in an e-mail.

As additional rights are required to view the signing status at Skatteverket, you can manually mark that the tax return has been submitted and signed by selecting the Tax return is signed on My pages at Skatteverket checkbox and set the date when it was done.

If you experience issues with the transfer to Mina sidor on Skatteverket's website, it is most likely due to the unavailability of their service. However, if it occurs in other cases, it could be because you have entered negative amounts in regular input fields.
Please check the INK2, INK2R, and INK2S fields and correct them if necessary before trying again.

Transfer files via Skatteverket's file transfer service

  1. Choose whether you want to include the Tax return (INK2) or only the tax return appendices in the SRU file.
  • When creating an SRU-file for a complete tax declaration (INK2 + appendices), the company's authorised signatory or reporting agent then signs the entire tax return via Mina sidor at the Swedish Tax Agency.

  • When selecting to create an SRU file for all appendices, excluding the INK2, the signing is done on paper or via the electronic service Inkomstdeklaration at Skatteverket.
