Aarhus University are not allowed to give personal advice on taxation issues. The International Academic Staff services will be able to assist you in finding general information about tax rules or refer you to the Danish Customs and Tax Administration for specific questions about your personal tax. If you need tax assistance or guidance you can also contact the PwC firm of auditors, but only following approval from your immediate superior.
The taxation rules are changing over time and it is therefore the Danish Customs and Tax Administration that can give you up to date information on your taxation.
the Danish Customs and Tax Administration consists of a main centre and a number of local tax centres all over Denmark. There is one tax authority which handles all matters concerning tax, labour market contributions, real property valuations, VAT, duties etc. You can contact the Danish Customs and Tax Administration in the following ways:
You need to set up an appointment in advance to receive personal assistance at a tax centre.
If you cannot find the answer you need at skat.dk, and if they cannot help you over the phone, the Danish Customs and Tax Administration will set up a personal appointment for you with one of their staff. You will be able to get an appointment within five working days.
You may go to any tax centre that you wish. See the tax centres closest to you on www.skat.dk - under Contact
For specific assessment of individual cases Aarhus University has entered into an agreement with PwC on assistance with tax-related employment issues. Furthermore, Aarhus University has made an agreement with PwC for tax assistance in connection with in- and expatriation of employees.
If you wish to have the expenses covered by your department, you need to get acceptance in writing by the head of department/school/centre director. In accordance with the agreement between the university and PwC, each department/school/centre must pay individually for PwC's services rendered. After you have the acceptance in writing, you may contact PwC yourself.
It is also possible to contact PwC without approval from your superior, but in that case you will have to pay for the service yourself.
