No it’s not valid in Sweden (or anywhere else). The date at which your resignation starts to count is the date that your employer learns of your intent to leave. You are however free to agree on an arbitrary date with them as your last day.
It’s not the date you put in the letterhead. That would be insane.
- thunfischbrot 3y agoI think that's not what was meant. You _can_ hand in your notice earlier than contractually necessary. If your notice period was 2 months, and you let your employer know, that you are quitting in 3 months, that's perfectly legal. Its not changing the date of the document, it's about the date of your intended departure you mention within it.

- indymike 3y ago> It’s not the date you put in the letterhead. That would be insane. Clarification: I put in the body of the letter the effective date I will be leaving. Something like: "My final day will be December 12, 2018." The date in the letterhead has nothing to do with it.
- rrobukef 3y agoIf you're really mistrusting of your employer, you may not want to give them proof you notified them earlier.
- thunfischbrot 3y agoIf that was the motivation, you would need to not notify them earlier. Simple as that.

"or anywhere else" is an exceedingly broad assertion. For Canada: > Yes, you do have to give notice of your resignation in Canada. The common law imposes a duty to provide notice of resignation on all employees. > However, you don’t have to give two weeks’ notice of your resignation in Canada per se. Rather, you have to give a “reasonable” amount of notice of your resignation, which may be more or less than two weeks’ notice. The amount of reasonable notice an employee has to give will depend on their specific circumstances, as discussed below. > The obligation to give reasonable notice is a general common law obligation of all employees.

During the 'notice period' you still have a job, though the employer may tell you to simply stay at home (and rescind access, etc).
