If you make a gift of movable property, such as, for example, a car or jewelry, it can be a good thing to write a deed of gift, in order to prevent any confusion, and prevent conflicts in the future. However, it is not a must-have. If you make a gift of an immovable property, such as real estate, have the gift to be made, in writing, in a deed of gift.

For a gift deed to be valid, certain requirements must be met. Among other things, a clear description of the gift, any special conditions and signatures of the donor and recipient are required. When formulating a gift deed letter, there are also many rules to take into account. For example, that consent is sometimes required from the person you are married to if the gift is included in the marriage law or that a gift between spouses must be registered with the Swedish Tax Agency
