The Tax Administration’s certificate service
The Tax Administration is developing a certificate service for managing interface applications and certificates electronically.
You need a certificate if you want to submit data or search for data through APIs.
Certificates are used to identify and authenticate the organisations that use an interface to report or retrieve data. They are also used to verify the integrity of records. The solution is based on digital certificates (Public Key Infrastructure).
The new service will not affect the existing and currently valid certificates. All existing certificates remain functional throughout their validity period.
Schedule for introduction of the new e-service
The goal is to make the e-service of the Tax Administration's certificate service available during the spring 2024. The new service is designed for users of the Tax Administration’s, the Incomes Register’s, and the Positive Credit Register’s interfaces.
The new service will not affect certificates that are active: they can be used until they expire.
Requesting a certificate
Certificates for the interfaces of the Tax Administration and the Incomes Register are still requested via the Incomes Register’s e-service:
