What are the income percentiles in Sweden?

I've seen numbers that say that say that Sweden has one of those most equal income distributions in the world. I've searched online for a breakdown, ideally as recent as possible, of what income makes up a given percentile. I haven't been able to find anything reliable. Does anyone know? I'm curious what constitutions the 90% and the 99% percentile in Sweden, for example.

Data for the whole EU. Can't figure out how to link directly but it's in the "Distribution of Incomes by Quantiles" table.
