Employee leasing notice – form and filling instructions (6106)

Employee leasing notice (TULOR 6106e) is used to report information on a foreign leased employee whom a foreign company has leased to a Finnish service recipient. The report must be submitted regardless of the duration of the work period.

Submit paper report no later than on on the 8th calendar day after the first wage payment date. Households and death estates not registered in the Finnish Tax Administration’s employer register can submit the report on paper no later than on the 8th day of the calendar month following the wage payment date.

Enter the following information on the form

Report’s identifying information

Fill in the report's identifying information in the top section of every page. The identifying information must be the same on all pages of the form. The identifying information includes:

  • Type of action
  • Pay period
  • Reporting date
  • Payer's report reference.

Type of action

Tick the appropriate box based on whether you are submitting a new report, correcting a previous report or entirely cancelling a previous report. You can select only one type of action. The information is mandatory.

Tick the box for New report if you are submitting information with an employee leasing notice for the first time.

A replacement report is submitted when an earlier report needs to be corrected. All data must be resubmitted on a replacement report, i.e. it must contain the data that was correct on the original report in addition to new and changed data. You must specify the report reference of the earlier report on the replacement report.

Select Report cancellation when entirely cancelling a report submitted earlier. When cancelling a report, in addition to specifying the type of action, you only need to specify the payer identifier and the report reference of the earlier report so that the correct report is cancelled. The recommendation is not to cancel a report until a new report can be submitted.

As a rule, corrections to the Incomes Register are made using replacement reports, but there are also situations in which the replacement report cannot be applied. Instead of the replacement report, the report submitted previously must first be cancelled and a new report must be submitted that contains the correct information. Such situations include, for example:

  • correction of the reporting date
  • pay period correction
  • correction of the payer's and income earner's identifiers
  • correction of the income earner's date of birth.

Pay period

Enter the pay period at the time of reporting. Report the start date and end date in the format ddmmyyyy, as follows: 01052022–31052022. The pay period is the period for which wages are paid. This information is mandatory.

Reporting date

Enter the reporting date in the format ddmmyyyy. For example, the reporting date of a report submitted on 15 May 2022 is entered as follows: 15052022. This information is mandatory.

Payer's report reference

The payer’s report reference uniquely identifies the earnings payment reports submitted by the payer. If you generate the report reference yourself, make sure that a unique report reference is entered on all new reports you submit.  If you do not fill in this field, the Incomes Register will generate the payer’s report reference for you. In such a case, the report reference will be sent to the payer in a letter to the address entered for the payer in the Population Information System or the Business Information System.

If you are submitting a new report and the payer does not have an identifier, do not enter the report reference but leave the field blank instead.

It is important to have a report reference because the same reference must be used when there are errors in the report and it needs to be corrected. Without the report reference, the Incomes Register will not be able to match the replacement report or report cancellation to the report that needs to be corrected. For this reason, the payer’s report reference is mandatory information if you are correcting or cancelling an earlier report.

The length of the report reference may be a maximum of 40 characters. It may contain both letters and numbers, but no spaces. The allowed characters are the numerals 0–9, the letters a–z and A–Z, and the special characters ‘_’ and ‘-’. Please note that the letters å, ä and ö are not allowed.

Examples of how to form a payer’s report reference: 

  • The employer has submitted employee leasing notices concerning three employees on the same reporting date, 30 April 2022. The employer can form the report references by adding a sequential number to the payment date:
    • 300420221
    • 300420222
    • 300420223
  • The employer has submitted employee leasing notices concerning three different employees (Virtanen, Nieminen and Järvinen) on the same reporting date, 15/07/2022. The employer can form the report references by adding the employee’s name to the payment date and by replacing the letter 'ä' with the letter 'a': 
    • 15072022Virtanen
    • 15072022Nieminen
    • 15072022Jarvinen
