Acting on behalf of a person

It is possible to act on behalf of another person in services that have activated Suomi.fi e-Authorizations. Such services include Kela’s MyKanta and the Finnish Tax Administration’s MyTax. See the relevant service’s instructions or contact its customer service to find out whether it has activated Suomi.fi e-Authorizations.

The right to act on behalf another person varies depending on the person on whose behalf you are acting. More information is available on the following pages:

To use an online service on behalf of another person, you must have personal Finnish means of identification such as online banking credentials, a mobile certificate or an ID card with a microchip.

The Suomi.fi activity history lists who has used your mandate on your behalf and in which e-service they have used it.

If the mandate has been granted to an organisation, the activity history will list the name of the organisation that acted on your behalf. If you would like more detailed information on the use of a service, please contact the e-service which was used.

You can see activity history on Suomi.fi from 16 November 2022.
