After the introduction of the Incomes Register, the unemployment insurance contributions will be charged according to the actualised wages. We will determine the payments based on the wages reported to the Incomes Register. There will also be changes to the invoicing cycle, sub-totals and terms of payment.
The first invoices that comply with the new procedure will be sent on 15 April 2019. These invoices will take into account the wages paid between January and March 2019 that are subject to unemployment insurance contribution. The subtotal of the invoice can be substantially different compared to the previous year. Please note that the invoice includes both employer and employee payments.
The term of payment is 21 days. Penalty interest invoices will be sent once a year.
You can check your payment data on the Employment Fund’s online customer service regarding the unemployment insurance contribution. If you notice any errors in the amount due, please rectify the information on the In Incomes Register. The information will become automatically available to us from the Incomes Register within a few days.
Any changes will usually be made when the next amount due is calculated. The next invoices will be sent in July, October and January.
The invoice and the enclosed decision will be available on the online customer service of the unemployment insurance contributions. You can also contact the Fund via the online customer service, if there are any problems. Identification for the service takes place on Suomi.fi. If you are using the service for another individual or company, you will need an authorisation to do so.
