23K SEK enough as take-home salary (ie after-tax)

Single in Stockholm

Hi

Apologies for yet another salary-related topic, but it definitely is a critical issue. I have slightly more than one year's job experience and will be sent by my German employer to our Stockholm office. My take-home salary will be approx. 23K SEK (we agreed on a net-salary basis).

Is this sufficient for a single person living in Stockholm? Thank you.

Best regards
Alex

It should be fine. Obviously it depends on your accommodation, but I would think you should be ok with 23k.

Yes, that is enough. Starting total salary for a teacher in Stockholm is around 25,000

Many people earn this amount before tax - so you should be fine
