Mining in Sweden

[trollbrot]

Hi!
Sorry for posting in English. My Swedish works fine for reading, so feel free to comment in Swedish .
I was wondering if someone can give me some more detailed insights in how mining is taxed in Sweden from a private or company perspective.
I understood so far that small scale mining is seen as "inkomster från hobbyverksamhet" similar to selling honey etc.
I have some questions that I did not completely understand.

Is is possible to measure the electricity the miner uses and deduct that from the revenue?
Do I calculate the tax when I receive the mining reward or when I sell it?
Does the tax depend on the tax of my regular income (30%/50% etc)?

Is there any advantage of creating a company (enskild or aktiebolag) do run the activities?

Thank you for reading

Do I calculate the tax when I receive the mining reward or when I sell it?

Both of them. When you receive the mining reward you should calculate the tax as "Inkomst av tjänst". When you sell it, you should calculate "inkomst av kapital".

Does the tax depend on the tax of my regular income (30%/50% etc)?

The "inkomst av tjänst" depends on you regular income. The "inkomst av kapital" does not. However, "inkomst av kapital" may depend on "utgift av kapital".

Is there any advantage of creating a company (enskild or aktiebolag) do run the activities?

This is complex. Do you own the company to 100% yourself? In what jurisdiction is the company located? Do you have both active and passive income from the company? You should probably consult a lawyer.

You tax only what you sell.
you don't tax under 50k KR it is counted as hobby income.

you can calculate all your costs before hand. Kw/j , Kw/h , Watts consumption of equipment etc etc..

Hi @trollbrot,

Did you end up forming a company for this? A friend and mine is playing around with some Antminers from https://www.bitmain.com/ and we're curious if it should be under a company or not. Nothing big, just 2 miners.

Thanks,
Kasper
