The state demands several hundred million in unpaid tax from Petter Stordalen – Dagsavisen

Petter Stordalen bought the holding company Strawberry Fields in 2013.

Since then and until 2021, Stordalen has withdrawn over DKK 800 million in tax-free dividends from the company, writes E24.

In 2022, the Tax Appeal Board said that these should not be tax-free withdrawals. They therefore demand that Stordalen repay over 200 million tax kroner.

Stordalen has taken this decision to court. On Monday, the parties held their closing arguments and a decision from the Oslo district court is expected this week.

Stordalen’s lawyer Kaare Andreas Shetelig claims to E24 that no tax rules have been broken.
