Handi supplier portal

If you do not have a system that can produce electronic invoices, you can create and send your electronic invoices using the government’s Handi supplier portal.

Introduction of the supplier portal requires contacting the Finnish Border Guard’s Handi support service at the email address handituki.rvle(at)raja.fi. The Border Guard reports its new supplier to the Finnish Government Shared Services Centre for Finance and HR (Palkeet), after which Palkeet invites the supplier to register as a user of the supplier portal in the Handi service.

Basware portal

Private persons can use the Basware portal to send e-invoices. Open the Basware portal.

The State only accepts e-invoices

From 1 April 2021 onwards, the State will only accept e-invoices that are compliant with the European Standard. We do not accept paper or email invoices because they are not e-invoices (The Electronic Invoicing for Contracting Entities and Traders Act (241/2019)).

Further information is available on the State Treasury’s Government Electronic Invoicing Website. The site contains application instructions for public administration that specify the information content model under the European Standard described in the European Union Directive 2014/55/EU and in the Electronic Invoicing for Contracting Entities and Traders Act (241/2019). The instructions include the data elements that public administration requires from e-invoices. Further information verkkolaskutus(at)valtiokonttori.fi.
