Swedbank in Estonia - who we are?

Swedbank and taxes

2017

Swedbank is one of Estonia's biggest taxpayers. For the year 2017, Swedbank will pay state taxes in the sum of 89 million euros. This increase is due to the fact that we have decided to discard future capital accumulation and to pay profits out as dividends. As of 2017, Swedbank will pay the entire profit as dividend, paying income tax on the entire sum paid out right away as well.

Therefore, we will pay 43 million euros of corporate income tax and 10 million euros of VAT for 2017. Last year, the bank contributed 27 million euros through various taxes on labour. Additionally, the bank paid 9 million euros in various regulatory fees and charges in 2017.

2016

For the year 2016, the bank paid a total of 68 million euros in state taxes, of which 25 million euros were made up of corporate income tax and 8 million euros of value added tax (VAT). The bank contributed 26 million euros through various taxes on labour. In addition, 8 million euros were paid as various regulatory fees and charges.
