Finland Expands E-Invoicing for Tax Payments

• A 30-day proposal for e-invoicing will appear in taxpayers’ online or mobile bank, covering several taxes if accepted.
• The change supports Finland’s digital-first approach, cuts paper mail, and helps avoid missed deadlines and late-payment interest.
• Taxpayers without a proposal can still request e-invoicing via e-bank or MyTax; non-online users may use direct debit instead.
• If the proposal is ignored, reminders may come through MyTax, Suomi.fi Messages, or SMS, and official messages never include links.

• In May 2026, the Finnish Tax Administration (Verohallinto) is sending e-invoice proposals to 400,000 Nordea and OP customers to encourage a shift from paper to electronic tax invoicing.
• These e-invoice proposals are for individual customers with property tax, residual tax, or advance tax liabilities who have provided Nordea or OP account numbers, with Nordea customers receiving them early May and OP customers later in the month.
• Accepting the e-invoice proposal ensures future tax invoices (property, advance, residual, inheritance, and gift tax) are received electronically, helping taxpayers avoid late payment penalties, which are 4.5% for inheritance tax and 9.5% for other taxes in 2026.
