(If you are a Swedish expat in Australia, or Australian expat in Sweden, and find international taxation interesting, then read on.)

In 1981, Australia and Sweden signed a tax treaty. In Sweden, the tax treaty is identified as “Proposition 1981:1006 – Förordning om dubbelbeskattningsavtal mellan Sverige och Australien.” Unfortunately, the Swedish Tax Office web site does not list (as of October 2009) the full text of the agreement on its page listing Sweden’s different bilateral tax treaties.

I have come over the old print version of the treaty and scanned the two missing attachments as pdf files. If you want to read up on the treaty, you can download the missing attachments below:

SFS 1981:1006 Bilaga 1 (4Mb .pdf)
SFS 1981:1006 Bilaga 2 (1.5Mb .pdf)

Summary in Swedish:

Den detaljerade texten för detta avtal finns i skrivande stund inte tillgänglig på svenska Skatteverkets hemsida. Länkarna ovan leder till pdf-versioner av avtalets två bilagor, scannade från svensk författningssamling 1981.
