Sweden has (no longer) either inheritance tax, nor gift tax. So giving someone money to/from abroad per se doesn't cause problems, though you/they may get asked about where it came from to make sure it is kosher (and not being used to fund drugs/terrorism/organised crime etc).
You asked about practicality - well, bank transfers in or out that are over 150 kSEK are automatically reported to the tax agency. Who may or may not (most likely not) enquire thereafter. |
