What should I write on my tax return?

What is anadvance statement?

An advance statement is an overview you send to the Danish Tax Agency, where you state your expected income and deductions for the coming tax year. This allows SKAT to estimate how much tax you will have to pay during the year, which affects your ongoing tax payments. At the end of the year, this information is used to prepare your annual statement and calculate whether you should get a tax refund or pay more.

How to fill out your tax return correctly

1. Enter your income information:

Startby stating your expected income for the coming year. This includes salary, pension, any income from investments and any other sources of income.

2. Subtract your deductions:

Remember to include all deductible expenses, such as mortgage interest, union dues, transportation and healthcare expenses. These deductions can help you reduce your taxes.

3. Add other relevant information:

Be sure to include any additional information that may affect your tax liability, such as changes in your family situation, changes in employment status or any other tax matters.

4. Update your tax return during the year:

The deadline for submitting your tax return varies from year to year. Stay up to date.
