VAT Registration
Once your business is registered with the Swedish Companies Registration Office (Bolagsverket), it needs to be registered with the Swedish Tax Agency for taxation purposes.
Depending on the nature of your business, you may need to register for VAT (Swedish: Mervärdesskatt, Moms).
If your business is liable for VAT, it is required to be registered for VAT. If you have employees (including yourself if you are working for a limited liability company) your company needs to be registered as an employer for Pay As You Earn (PAYE).
