 FAQ

Domestic telephone charges

Domestic telephone charges depend on the contract between the caller and the telephone operator. The rates stated in the contract are applicable:

  • If you call from a stationary phone, the rate is the standard local network rate.
  • If you call from a mobile phone, the rate is the standard mobile rate.

We record a part of the calls in order to improve the quality of our customer service. We save the recordings for 2 months, after which they are automatically removed.

You can identify yourself to the telephone service via MyTax

If you want, you can identify yourself via MyTax to take care of your tax matters in the Tax Administration’s telephone service. You can still call the telephone service without identifying yourself. However, if you identify yourself in advance, the official will see your data immediately, which speeds up the service. If you take care of matters on behalf of another taxpayer – for example, if you are an accountant managing a company’s taxes – you can identify yourself when you make the call. Your authorisation to act on behalf of the company will be checked separately.

You can request a code in MyTax to identify yourself to our telephone service when you are on queue. Please note that if you leave a call-back request, the identification will no longer be valid when the official calls you back because it is no longer the same call.

In MyTax, individual taxpayers will also have an opportunity to set a restriction concerning the use of the telephone service. In practice, this means that the taxpayer or a party authorised by the taxpayer must identify themselves to the telephone service via MyTax every time they call the Tax Administration in matters related to the taxpayer’s taxes.
