In September 2025, the Swedish government announced a temporary reduction on the VAT rate applied to most food products (excluding alcohol) from 12% to 6%.
This will apply from 1 April 2026 until 31 December 2027 and is being implemented to help support household finances during a period of economic downturn and persistently high food prices in the country.
