Property abroad

Body

Hello,

 

We relocated to Sweden on 16 June from the Netherlands and immediately registered with Skatteverket.

Before leaving the Netherlands we signed a contract to sell our apartment for 367k EUR. We bought it for 290k EUR in 2015. The sale will be finalized on 14th July - after we moved to Sweden. Are we now liable to capital gains tax in Sweden?

Thank you

 

Hello,

You are not liable to capital gains tax in Sweden since the contract was signed before you moved to Sweden.

Kind regards

Daniel
