Reporting loan data – instructions and API description now available

On 7th December 2022, the Project to establish a positive credit register published updated versions of the following documents related to the reporting of loan data:

• Reporting data on loan contracts – API description and example messages
• General instructions for application developers

Update: Instructions on reporting data to the Positive credit register were published in English and Swedish on 16 December 2022. Link to the instructions on reporting data to the Positive credit register

The previous versions of the API description and the instructions on reporting data on loans were reviewed by stakeholders in April–May 2022. The previous version of the general instructions for application developers was reviewed by stakeholders in November 2022. All documents have changed since the previous versions.

As the development work progresses, changes may still have to be made to the documents now published. For example, when the stakeholder testing starts in May 2023, things that need to be changed may be detected. If changes affecting the technical implementation are made to the API description or the instructions, updated versions of the documents will be published on the Positive credit register's website. The stakeholders will be notified of the changes by email. The notifications will be sent to the stakeholder mailing list. To join, send an email message to luottotietorekisteri (a) vero.fi.

The Swedish and English versions of the instructions for reporting data will be published in December.

If you have any questions or comments on the published documentation, please send email to luottotietorekisteri (a) vero.fi. Questions and answers will be discussed in a stakeholder event on 20 December, from 2 p.m. to 3.30 p.m.
