What does Tax Card Online do?:
You can request and print out a revised tax card for your wages, salary, any sideline income, social benefits or your seafarer’s wages.
You can print out your new tax card yourself if it is the type of card that an employee of the Finnish Tax Administration does not have to check manually.
Tax Card Online also accepts requests concerning income tax prepayments, for which you can either ask for a new official calculation or ask for an adjustment of existing prepayments. We send the invoices to you by post.
Remember that when you are logged in with your own personal User ID and Password you cannot request a card for any other taxpayer, including your child(ren).
