A Self-Employed is a person who in practice works as a sole proprietor – but without having their own registered company or their own organization number.

The self-employed is instead connected to a so-called self-employment company – such as Invosy – which, for a percentage fee, handles the invoicing of the self-employed and which then also pays the salary of the self-employed after taxes and contributions have been deducted and paid correctly.

In other words, it is the self-employment company – which of course has both an organization number and a Swedish F-tax certificate – that hires the self-employed on a fixed-term basis and then pays regular tax and social security contributions and calculates and pays the correct net salary to the self-employed.
