Ordinary tax on account is payable twice a year in equally large amounts.

As the interest rate is not deductible, this corresponds to an interest rate of approximately 5,6 % before tax.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Is it advantageous to make voluntary payment of residual tax?<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether it makes sense to pay voluntarily before or after 20 November 2021 depends on the ratio of the Company&#8217;s loan interest rate\/deposit rate compared to the interest rate that is attributed to any residual tax.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the company has surplus cash, or if the company\u2019s loan interest rate is less than 5.6%, it will generally be advantageous to make a voluntary payment together with the ordinary on-account tax.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The vast majority of Danish banks currently charge a negative interest on deposits. Therefore, it may be relevant to have the company&#8217;s expected residual tax calculated for the 2021 income year and pay as much as possible before the deadline.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Possibility of voluntary payment of the third instalment<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the company choose not to pay a voluntary on-account tax now, and it later turns out that there has been a higher profit than expected, it will be the possible to make a voluntary payment on 1 February 2022 at the latest.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here the company must pay an interest surcharge which is expected to be 0.9%.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Reduction of ordinary tax on account<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the company expects a loss for the income tax year 2021 and if an ordinary on-account tax rate is set for payment on 20 November 2021, the rate of on account tax can be reduced via E-Tax (TastSelv Erhverv on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skat.dk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.skat.dk<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).
