Roxette submitted incorrect information to the Tax Authority after the world tour in 1994 and 1995, and now they are finally charged with 4.5 million SEK to pay.
The Supreme Administrative Court rejects Per Gessle and Marie Bolyos (former Fredriksson) appeal.

The investigation began ten years ago, when it was suspected that Per Gessle and Marie Bolyos bypassed tax during the part of the tour, which was held in Germany. Fees were paid to the artists' joint production company instead of salary to the artists, who were therefore not submitted to income tax obligation. The money, however, is to be regarded as income, because the artists had them. Therefore, the fact is that Per Gessle with just over SEK 2.3 million and Marie Bolyos with over 2.2 million have to pay. Tax requirements apply also travel benefits for Per Gessle wife and Marie Bolyos husband, who accompanied them on the tour.
