Japan and Europe country pack

The tax codes, return worksheets and files for Japan, Switzerland, Norway and Sweden, and what the pack does not do.

Updated Nov 10, 2026

# Japan and Europe country pack

This pack covers four countries: Japan, Switzerland, Norway and Sweden. Each has its own tax codes, its own return worksheet, and, for Norway and Sweden, a file to upload or import.

Verify with your tax office. Last reviewed 2026-11-06. Every rate in the pack is a starting point. The tax office publishes the rules, and the pack does not replace your adviser.

What each country has

  • Japan. Consumption tax at 10% and the reduced 8% rate, with the jp_ct worksheet and a check of the qualified-invoice registration number.
  • Switzerland. VAT at 8.1%, 2.6% and 3.8%, with the ch_vat worksheet.
  • Norway. MVA at 25%, 15% and 12%, with the no_mva worksheet and a SAF-T file.
  • Sweden. Moms at 25%, 12% and 6%, with the se_moms worksheet and an SIE 4 file.

How to use a pack

  1. Open the pack screen for the country.
  2. Choose the period and show the worksheet.
  3. Copy the figures into the return on the tax office's own portal, or upload the file where the country asks for one.

Pop Books does not file a return, does not send a file to a tax office and does not connect to a portal. The worksheet and the file are yours to check and use.

What the pack doesn't cover

The pack does not decide which rate applies to a supply, does not calculate payroll tax, and does not sign or submit anything. Where a form asks for a figure the books cannot know, the worksheet leaves it for you to enter.

Read the article for your country for its rates, boxes and file.
