Instructions for using the Incomes Register's e-service for data providers (pdf), 16 December 2020, version 1.01

Always report data in the correct form and using hyphens. Lower- and upper-case letters make a difference when reporting data or performing searches.

The e-service functions may be slow or delayed in the beginning. No hourglass wait icon or similar will be displayed when performing an operation.
The easiest way to navigate between various parts of the service is via the left-hand menu.

You can learn more about using the e-service via the instructions and i-buttons.

To end your session, remember to log out from the service by clicking the Log out button in the upper right corner.

Language versions

You can use the Incomes Register e-service in three languages: Finnish, Swedish and English. There are still some translation gaps in the Swedish and English-language versions.

Signing in to the Incomes Register

You can sign in to the Incomes Register's e-service by clicking the Incomes Register sign in the button at the top corner of the incomesregister.fi page. Strong identification is required for login, i.e. using online banking codes, a mobile certificate or a certificate card.

When signing in with a Katso ID, no Act as a private individual function is shown on the e-service front page. Sign in to the service with a Katso ID.

Acting on behalf of another party and sign-in

Users who have granted authorisation in the Katso service can use Katso identification in the Incomes Register. The service shows data on the companies that have provided authorisation through the Katso-service. If authorisation has been granted both in the Katso service and Suomi.fi e-Authorisations and the user signs in to the e-service with a Katso ID, only the authorisations granted in the Katso service will be shown.

If a user acting on behalf of another wants to view both the Suomi.fi e-Authorisations and Katso authorisations, they must sign in to the Incomes Register e-service using Suomi.fi identification (with online banking codes, a mobile certificate or a certificate card). In this case, the authorisation query is directed at authorisations granted both in Suomi.fi e-Authorisations and the Katso service.
