What is Samlet Betaling?
Samlet Betaling is charged with calculating and collecting contributions for a number of schemes that employers in Denmark have to pay into. The obligation to contribute to the schemes is a statutory requirement. However, different terms apply concerning whether you must pay contributions to the individual schemes.

Under each scheme, you can read about what you get from the contributions you pay into via Samlet Betaling:
Overview of the rates for 2017-2024
For the 1st quarter of 2024 and onwards, Samlet Betaling also collects the ATP contributions.
Calculation
From the 1st quarter of 2024, the calculation of your contribution to Samlet Betaling will be based on your reporting of ATP contributions. Previously, your contribution to Samlet Betaling was calculated based on your payment of ATP contributions.
Each quarter, Samlet Betaling receives information on the total ATP contributions that you have reported in eIncome.
The reported ATP contributions are recalculated as a number of full-time employees by dividing the reported contribution by the ATP contribution rate that applies to the company:
The total reported ATP contribution / the applicable ATP rate = the number of full-time employees.
Example quarterly contribution:
Reported ATP contribution: DKK 5,000 / applicable ATP rate: DKK 891
= 5.61 full-time employees.
Calculation periods
When you receive a payment order, the contribution is calculated by looking at how much you have reported in ATP contributions in the following four periods:
End date of the pay period | Deadline for reporting | Deadline for payment |
---|---|---|
Q1 (1 January - 31 March) | 31 May | 1 July 2024 |
Q2 (1 April - 30 June) | 31 August 2024 | 1 October 2024 |
Q3 (1 July - 30 September) | 30 November 2024 | 1 January 2025 |
Q4 (1 October - 31 December) | 28 February 2025 | 1 April 2025 |
