Understanding Your Gross Salary: A Detailed Walkthrough
Your Gross Salary: The Starting Point for Your Net Salary

Your gross salary as you specified to 38 625 SEK, is the first step in the salary calculation. It is the amount on your pay slip before any deductions are made, which forms the basis for the calculation of the amount that ultimately reaches your bank account (the net salary).

Basic Deduction: Reducing Your Taxable Income

The basic deduction in your case calculated to 1 400 SEK; is a tax deduction that reduces the part of your income that is taxable. This deduction varies depending on income and other factors, and its purpose is to provide each individual with a tax relief space for part of the income.
