Being self-employed means keeping tabs on many aspects of the business, and an important part of this is employer contributions. For employees, these contributions are paid by the employer, but as a self-employed person, you are responsible for paying them. When you become self-employed via Shoutly, we take care of the employer contribution so you don't have to think about it.
Employer contributions, often referred to as social security contributions, are fees that the employer pays for its employees. These contributions are used to fund basic social insurance cover, including old-age pensions, medical care and social care. Employers' contributions must be paid to the Swedish Tax Agency, the fee is 31.42% of the gross salary paid. If you don't have employees, you just pay dues for yourself.
The fee is payable for each person who works, whether they have an employer or are self-employed.
Employer contributions are paid every month on the 12th with the exception of January and August when they are paid on the 17th.
As an entrepreneur, you file an employer return and pay taxes and fees. As a self-employed person, we help you with these payments, making it easier for you.
