Who is the obligation to keep books?

You may have set up their own business or looking to start their own? The first thing that pops into your mind is – bokkeeping – damn boring. Then are you considering if you need to keep records?

The law governing the accounting obligations is the Accounting (BFL). According 2 Chapter. BFL är följande juridiska och fysiska personer i princip alltid bokföringsskyldiga:

– Company Limited, partnerships and cooperative societies are always required to maintain accounts

– Natural person carrying on business (sole proprietorship) are required to keep records

There are some exceptions, but they are not many. Read more here, 2 Chapter. BFL.
