Approval
There are two variations of summary impositions of a fine; where full payment counts as approval and where the prosecutor requires a written approval. One can provide written approval in both cases and no later than the date stated in the summary imposition of a fine.
Pay the fines on time
If you do not pay the fine on time, you will be sent a payment reminder. The fine amount shall be paid within 14 days of the reminder, no reminder fee is imposed. The Swedish Police Authority may not approve any instalment plan.
If you do not pay your fines
If, despite the reminder, you do not pay the fines, the matter is turned over to the Swedish Enforcement Authority. This will include a fee of SEK 600. When the matter has been transferred, the Swedish Police Authority's involvement is concluded. Any questions should be addressed directly to the Enforcement Authority.

There are two types of fines
Fines proportional to the offender's daily income
Fines proportional to the offender's daily income are used for more serious crimes. The size of the fine depends on your income, while the number of fines relates to the severity of the offense
One-time monetary fines
One-time monetary fines are mostly used for minor offenses. The size of the fine depends on the seriousness of the offense. Your income has no impact on the size of the fine.
Charges for the Fund for Victims of Crime Act
The Crime Victim Fund fee is 1 000 SEK, which every person convicted of a crime that is punishable by a fine sentence has to pay. The Fund for Victims of Crime Act charge is included in the sum stated on the inpayment form administered by the Swedish Police Authority.
