1. Register a bank account

University wages are paid via Danske Bank. If your account is with another bank, you must register your account details to get your wages paid into it. If you do not do this, you will be paid with a payment slip that you will have to deposit at your bank.

Do you have a foreign address or no Swedish personal ID number? You must still register a bank account with Danske bank before payment is made. Please contact your local HR generalist.

2. Send us your tax certificate

You should send an “A-skattsedel” (A-tax certificate) to the payroll group so that the right preliminary tax can be subtracted from your pay. Send it to “lönegruppen, MA 813” in an internal post envelope.

3. Complete your personal details

The university’s payroll system is called Primula and contains most things to do with your employment. We would like you to add your personal details, such as your address and contact details for your next-of-kin.
