How much deduction do I get?

You need to calculate the total fees you pay to a private unemployment fund (a-kasse), a trade union or both.

Example: Trade union

You sign up for a trade union as of 1 May and are required to pay DKK 350/month.
This means that there are 8 months left of the year.

The calculation:
8 x DKK 350 = DKK 2,800

You then have to write DKK 2,800 in field 458.

You can have a maximum deduction of DKK 6,000 per year. The total amount you can enter in the field is therefore DKK 6,000.

Example: Unemployment fund (a-kasse)

You sign up for an unemployment fund as of 1 May and are required to pay DKK 450/month.
This means that there are 8 months left of the year.

The calculation:
8 x DKK 450 = DKK 3,600

You then have to write DKK 3,600 in field 439.
