You will receive a vehicle tax bill, i.e. an invoice for vehicle tax, every year. The vehicle tax bill delivery methods available to personal customers are: e-invoice, electronic invoice in OmaPosti, Kivra or Suomi.fi Messages, and paper invoice. Corporate customers can provide a separate invoicing address for the vehicle tax bill.
The delivery method for vehicle tax bills is selected according to the order of priority defined by the State Treasury:
- E-invoice
- OmaPosti
- Kivra
- Suomi.fi Messages
- Letter post
E-invoice
You can receive invoices in electronic format in your online bank. These are called e-invoices. The invoice contains all the required information, and all you need to do is check the invoice and confirm the payment. To receive e-invoices, you need to make an e-invoicing agreement in your online bank.
To order e-invoices, you need your vehicle tax customer number. The customer number is marked on the vehicle tax bill, and you can check it from Traficom’s My e-Services under My details.
When ordering the e-invoice, please note that the vehicle tax bills for all the vehicles of the taxpayer specified in the vehicle tax bill will be sent to the online bank as an e-invoice. To make sure that you do not order another person’s vehicle tax bills to your online bank, review the taxpayer information carefully.
For more information about ordering e-invoices, please contact your own bank.
OmaPosti
OmaPosti will send you a notification when you receive a vehicle tax bill, if you have activated notifications in the application. You can pay your vehicle taxes directly in the OmaPosti app.
If you order an e-invoice, you will no longer receive your vehicle tax bill in OmaPosti.
