The tax assessment notice (årsopgørelsen) is an overview of your tax for the past calendar year. It shows your earnings, tax deductions and how much tax you have paid.
Your tax assessment notice is available in E-tax (our self-service system TastSelv) each year in March. It shows you if you are entitled to a tax refund or if you have paid too little and have to pay outstanding tax. Check it to see if the information is correct and change any incorrect figures and information.

You are responsible for the entries in your tax assessment notice, and as a result you should take good care of your NemID/MitID so other people do not get access to your information.

Facts

Most of your tax information is automatically included in your tax assessment notice. If you think the figures are incorrect, it may be because:

  • you have not adjusted your preliminary income assessment when your income changed.
  • you have used your primary tax card with several employers/providers and as a result you have been paid too much during the year. Your primary tax card should only be used by one employer/provider. Read more about primary tax card, secondary tax card and tax exemption card.
  • You have forgotten to enter your deduction for transport between home and work in your preliminary income assessment meaning you have not gotten your deduction.
