Students can work up to 20 hours per week as long as they have a residence permit and a Swedish personnummer (ie not exchange/guest students). If you are fluent in Swedish, you can take any sort of job that has part-time hours, like working in a restaurant/kitchen/café/club, shops, hotels, cleaning, as a personal assistent, etc. If you don't speak Swedish, you'll likely have difficulty finding work at all. Some people are able to get jobs handing out newspapers and posting bulletins, but there's a lot of competition (especially in larger cities) for only a few jobs. Depending on your skills and languages, there may be other options open to you, like tutoring in your native language, working in a call center or getting a part-time job in a skilled position. However, you can't count on getting work. I know many international students that weren't able to find work for several years (and in a few cases, at all). Student hours conflict with a lot of jobs, which means there's just not much available. There's no minimum wage in Sweden, but most entry level jobs earn about 90 kr (SEK) per hour, which is a little over €8/£7. If you work somewhere like a student union (available at Uppsala and Lund, not sure about elsewhere), the pay will be less. Students generally pay taxes, it depends somewhat on your situation and how much you work/earn.
