In the link that you provided, it asks if I am a member of the Swedish church? Can you please shed some light on how that affects taxation?

[estomagordo]

If you belong to a religious federation (I do not think this is limited to the Swedish Church), your membership fee or however men of the cloth prefer to phrase things, is deducted straight through taxation. It's rather odd.

You pay a tiny amount of church tax if you are a member of the Swedish church.

The Church of Sweden was the state church until 2000. As a remnant of that, they can still collect membership fees through the tax system. It is open to other churches as well.

I personally don't pay any church tax. Its only if you want to pay.

There is no way to reduce your taxes (apart from tiny tiny amount of church tax) for salaried employee.

Swedish church membership means an additional 1% tax on average.
