Confirmation of the reporting of benefits payment data

Before you can submit benefits paid by your organisation to the Incomes Register, a representative of your organisation must confirm the organisation as the reporter of the benefit payments data. This only needs to be done once.

The confirmation is made by the benefit payer. If the payer and the notifier are different organisations, both must make the confirmation on behalf of their organisation.

Only after the confirmation has been made can you submit benefits payment data from your system through the interface or in the Incomes Register e-service.

Who must confirm the reporting of benefits payment data?

Benefits are paid and reported by pension institutions, insurance institutions, Kela, State Treasury and organisations employing persons in non-military service, for example.

Make a confirmation if your organisation pays benefits, pensions or daily allowances for non-military service and reports them to the Incomes Register by submitting a benefits payment report.

On the other hand, fringe benefits, such as car benefits and telephone benefits, do not require confirmation of the disclosure of benefits payment data, as they are not benefits income. You must use an earnings payment report to enter fringe benefit data to the Incomes Register.

How to confirm the reporting of benefits payment data

A representative of your organisation can submit a confirmation on behalf of the organisation either in the Incomes Register’s e-service or in the Tax Administration’s certificate service.
