Frequently Asked Questions
If you are tax resident in a country other than Sweden, you need to provide your TIN to us.

The Swedish Tax Agency, in turn, shares this information with tax authorities in other countries in accordance with international agreements.

TIN stands for “Taxpayer Identification Number” and is an international tax identification number. It is used by tax authorities in different countries to identify individuals in tax matters.
In Sweden, your TIN is the same as your personal identity number (personnummer). In other countries, it may be a specific number issued by the tax authority, such as a tax number, social security number, or personal ID number.
If you are unsure where to find your TIN, you can contact the tax authority in the country that issued it.
The Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket) provides a list of tax authorities or equivalent institutions in EU and Nordic countries, including links to each country’s tax authority:
