The economy of the move: costs, deductions and benefits

What the move costs depends mostly on the removal company's price, which you only get through a quote. The RUT tax deduction is deducted directly from the invoice and is 50 percent of the labour cost, up to 75,000 kronor per person and year, combined with ROT tax deduction. If you move for work and keep the old home, you can deduct the home at the workplace for up to two years. If you receive housing allowance, you must report the move no later than 14 days after you found out about the change.
