We process and file all purchase invoices as e-invoices, in accordance with general state administration practices. Finnish government agencies do not accept invoices sent as email attachments.
We request that you send your invoices electronically via Posti Messaging Oy, which is the e-invoicing operator of the state administration.
As all invoices are circulated internally, we ask that you include the following information in your invoice’s reference field: the name of the client, the ordering unit (cost unit) and any other necessary details that will make it easier to process the payment.
Unless otherwise agreed, the invoice shall be due for payment twenty-one (21) days from the arrival of an acceptable invoice.
If you do not use a system that produces electronic invoices, you may use the e-invoicing service offered by the Government to generate and send your e-invoice. This service is currently free of charge. For instructions on how to log into and use the service, visit the website of the State Treasury.
