Sweden poker tax question

[dribzy88]

Hey I'm an Australian living in Sweden. I'm looking to withdraw some money from 888 to put into my Swedbank. I remember reading articles about Sweden taxing winnings from poker sites? I'm only withdrawing about 17,000 SEK but will winnings be taxed? Or should i just transfer it into my Aussie bank?

 

Thanks.

Hello Dribzy,

 

If you are supposed to pay tax in Sweden, winnings from EU sites are free from taxes. So 888 winnings are fine.
