Persons submitting Intrastat declarations need an electronic authorization in the form of a mandate. Authorization is granted by the company CEO or another person with signatory powers through Suomi.fi e-Authorizations.
The mandate used for Intrastat declarations is Intrastat declarations on intra-EU trade flows.
If you use an agent, i.e. a representative for submitting Intrastat declarations, you must authorize the representative electronically in Suomi.fi e-Authorizations by granting a mandate for transactions (Statistical declarations on intra-EU trade flows) to the company acting as your representative.
The CEO of the representative or some other person with signatory powers must also issue a mandate to represent (Statistical declarations on intra-EU trade flows) to the persons submitting declarations.
Foreign citizens authorised to sign for Finnish companies and do not have a Finnish identity code must introduce the Finnish Authenticator Identification Service for foreign citizens.
You can submit an application for the registration of a mandate in the Digital and Population Data Services Agency’s Mandate service provided by officials. In order to grant mandates in Suomi.fi e-Authorizations, a foreign company must be registered in Finland. It is advisable for companies to choose right to grant a mandate as the mandate type, so that independent authorisation on behalf of the company or organisation will be possible in the Suomi.fi service. With the right to grant a mandate, companies can grant mandates to agents electronically in Suomi.fi e-Authorizations.
Foreigner’s user identifiers (UID) should be applied for before applying for mandates. The person to be authorized must also have a foreigner’s user identifier (UID), if he/she does not have a Finnish personal identity code.
