There are a number of tax-laws that you can utilise if you know what you’re doing and you work for the right companies. You can invest 14% of your yearly pay in stock options or regular stock if your company has financial programs to deal with the legalities, of those 14% the first 57000kr will be taxed at 25% and the rest will be taxed at 42% when you sell the options or stock.

Other than that you can deduct things like your mortgage, and you can put more money into your pension investments, and a range of other things.

Most of these are methods that a lot of people don’t know about, mainly because they are financial tricks that nobody teaches you about.

You have to understand, however, that a lot of us Danes are quite happy with our high taxes because it pays for everything. I have ADHD for example, and though I don’t need it, my Elvanse medicine cost me around 80kr because the state pays the other 2400kr. We’re of course not always happy with how the politicians handle our taxes, especially these days where they seem increasingly unable to meet citizens need, leading to many smaller towns setting up communities to run things like schools because the public schools are closing. But over all, I think that even though we have 13 different political parties were basically mainly different branches of social democrats.
