Abstract

This paper examines the budgetary impact and dynamic effects of implementing a global minimum tax in Sweden. Using a new dataset of global activities of large Swedish companies, we estimate that Swedish tax revenue could increase by approximately SEK 500 million per year (around EUR 50 million). In addition, we estimate that administrative costs can be of the same order of magnitude and discuss the role of safe harbor rules to limit the administrative burden.
