Act as the representative of the company (a large number of authorisations)
Choose this role if you want to use the Incomes Register on behalf of a company or an organisation and you have been granted a large number (thousands) of authorisations.
With this role you can retrieve only the authorisation that allows you to act on behalf of the company you have selected instead of all the authorisations you have been granted.
If you only have few authorisations, it is better to choose the role "Act as the representative of a company or an organisation".

Search for companies by Business ID
On the search page, you will only see one company and not a listing of companies.
The Incomes Register will check your authorisation to act on behalf of the company in question from the Suomi.fi e-Authorizations service.
If you do not have the authorisations to act on behalf of the selected organisation, the service will indicate that no authorisations were found for the search. In that case, check the validity of your granted authorisations in in the Suomi.fi e-Authorizations service. Also, make sure that you have entered the Business ID correctly.

You can submit an interface application and order a certificate in the e-service of the Tax Administration’s certificate service.
In the e-service of the Tax Administration’s certificate service you can
- submit a new application or a replacement application for using the technical interface;
- apply for a new certificate;
- revoke a certificate;
- update the contact details for the technical contact person of a certificate; and
- confirm the organisation as a reporter of the benefit payments data.
You need a certificate if you want to submit data or retrieve data through APIs to your own software
If you are acting via an API, your organisation needs a certificate. A certificate identifies and authorises the organisation that reports or retrieves data via an API.
Certificates are issued in accordance with the purpose of use. For example, if your organisation reports both benefits payment data and earnings payment data, it will need a separate certificate for each.
The use of certificates requires technical skills. Agree upon tasks and procedures with your software supplier.

Review the technical instructions on the website of the Tax Administration’s certificate service
Renewal of certificate
Contact the supplier of your organisation’s software system to discuss what needs to be done when a certificate is due for renewal. Because of the many differences between software products, the steps you need to take may vary.
