Description

Eurooppalaisen perintötodistuksen avulla kuolleen henkilön perilliset, testamentin toimeenpanijat ja jäämistön hoitajat voivat todistaa asemansa ja valtuutensa toisessa EU:n jäsenvaltiossa. Todistus helpottaa perintöasioiden hoitamista, silloin kun perinnönjättäjällä oli omaisuutta useissa jäsenvaltioissa. Eurooppalaista perintötodistusta voi hakea vasta perinnönjättäjän kuoleman jälkeen. Todistusta haetaan sen valtion viranomaiselta, jolla on toimivalta perintöä koskevassa asiassa. Yleensä toimivalta kuolinpesän selvityksessä ja perinnönjaossa on sillä jäsenvaltiolla, jossa perinnönjättäjä kuollessaan asui. Perinnönjättäjä on kuitenkin voinut elossa ollessaan kirjata testamenttiinsa, että hänen perintöönsä sovelletaan sen maan lakia, jonka kansalainen hän on testamentin tehdessään tai kuollessaan.

How to use it

Selvitä, voitko hakea todistusta Digi- ja väestötietovirastolta vai kuuluuko asia toisen valtion viranomaiselle. Todistusta voit hakea joko Digi- ja väestötietoviraston sivuilta löytyvällä lomakkeella, tai vapaamuotoisella hakemuksella, josta ilmenevät kuitenkin vastaavat tiedot. Tarvitset hakemuksen liitteeksi aina muita selvityksiä, joiden sisältö riippuu todistuksen käyttötarkoituksesta. Tarvittavia selvityksiä voivat olla: * perinnönjättäjän sukuselvitys * perukirja (jos sellainen on laadittu) * ositus- ja perinnönjakokirja * testamentti ja sen tiedoksiantoilmoitus * avioehto ja sen rekisteröintitodistus * pesänjakajan ja/tai -selvittäjän määräys * selvitys ulkomailla sijaitsevasta omaisuudesta Toimita hakemus ja sen liitteet Digi- ja väestötietovirastoon sähköpostitse turvapostilla tai postilla. Saat laskun ensisijaisesti OmaPostiin tai Suomi.fi-palveluun, jos olet ottanut sen käyttöösi. Muussa tapauksessa saat laskun postitse.

Conditions

Todistus voidaan antaa vain 17.8.2015 jälkeen kuolleista henkilöistä.

Examination of impediments to marriage

Before marriage, an examination of impediments to marriage must be carried out. This ensures that no impediments exist for the marriage.

Published by: Digital and Population Data Services Agency · Government organisation

Description language: English

Coverage: All Finland

About this service

Description

Before the marriage ceremony, you must request an examination of impediments to marriage. This ensures that no impediments under Finnish law exist for the marriage. You can only be married after the impediments to marriage have been examined. Impediments to marriage include * minority * a valid marriage or registered partnership * too close a family relationship * family relationship created by adoption. You should request the examination of impediments well in advance, but no earlier than four months before your marriage date, as the certificate is valid for four months. At that time, you must also indicate which last name you will use after the marriage ceremony. If one of the spouses is a foreigner, you should allow several weeks for the processing the matter. If intend to get married abroad, place an order with us for a certificate for a foreign marriage ceremony.

How to use it

* Request the examination of impediments to marriage in the Digital and Population Data Services Agency’s online service. You can also fill in the PDF form and mail it in or hand it over in person at a service location. * You will receive the certificate after we have processed your request. You do not need to bring a certificate to the marriage ceremony if you are married by an officiator from the Digital and Population Data Services Agency. If the officiator is from another organisation, hand the certificate over to them before the marriage ceremony. * If you are getting married outside Finland, order a certificate of the right to marry abroad in the online service.

Conditions

The examination of impediments uses data from the population information system. If your or your spouse's marital status is not recorded in the Population Information System, we will need a certificate of your marital status. You can obtain this certificate from the embassy, consulate, or registry office or similar authority of your country of citizenship. More detailed instructions are available on our website. If neither of you is a Finnish citizen, we will also need an official certificate that you have the right to get married in Finland. We can process a Finnish, Swedish or English document. If the document is in another language, you may also need an EU translation form, a translation carried out abroad by a certified translator, or a translation by an authorised translator in Finland. We will request a translation from you if necessary. A translation is not required if the certificate is issued by an EU member state, and it includes a translation form pursuant to an EU regulation.

Published by: Digital and Population Data Services Agency · Government organisation

Description language: Finnish

Coverage: Finland, excluding Åland

About this service

Description

Edunvalvojana olet tilivelvollinen holhousviranomaiselle. Valtuutettuna olet tilivelvollinen holhousviranomaiselle siitä omaisuudesta, joka on valtakirjassa määrätty hoidettavaksesi. Holhousviranomainen voi käyttää pakkokeinoja, mikäli edunvalvoja tai valtuutettu laiminlyö tilivelvollisuutensa. ### Omaisuusluettelo kolmen kuukauden kuluessa tehtävän alkamisesta Edunvalvojana tai edunvalvontavaltuutettuna toimitat holhousviranomaiselle omaisuusluettelon kolmen kuukauden kuluessa tehtäväsi alkamisesta. Omaisuusluettelossa ilmoitat muun muassa ne varat ja velat, jotka ovat sinun hoidettavinasi. Toimita omaisuusluettelo liitteineen meille sähköisesti asiointipalvelun kautta edunvalvonta.dvv.fi. ### Vuositili kolmen kuukauden kuluessa tilikauden päättymisestä Edunvalvojana laadit ja toimitat holhousviranomaiselle tilin vuosittain. Tilikausi on yleensä kalenterivuosi. Holhousviranomainen voi perustellusta syystä pidentää tilikautta tai vapauttaa edunvalvojan vuositilin tekovelvollisuudesta. Vuositili tositteineen on toimitettava tilikautta seuraavana vuonna viimeistään 31.3 mennessä. Toimita vuositili liitteineen meille sähköisesti asiointipalvelun kautta edunvalvonta.dvv.fi. ### Päätöstili kahden kuukauden kuluessa tilikauden päättymisestä Edunvalvonta päättyy, jos päämiehesi edunvalvonta lakkautetaan tai päämiehesi kuolee. Alaikäisen päämiehesi osalta tilivelvollisuus päättyy, kun hän tulee täysi-ikäiseksi. Laadi ja toimita päätöstili kahden kuukauden kuluessa tilikauden päättymisestä. Päätöstili vastaa sisällöltään vuositiliä ja koskee sitä ajankohtaa, jolta vuositiliä ei ole vielä tehty. Toimita päätöstili liitteineen meille sähköisesti asiointipalvelun kautta edunvalvonta.dvv.fi. ### Edunvalvontavaltuutetun tilivelvollisuus Edunvalvontavaltuutettu on tilivelvollinen holhousviranomaiselle ainoastaan silloin, jos valtakirjassa on näin määrätty. Edunvalvontavaltuutettu antaa aina omaisuusluettelon. Edunvalvontavaltuutettu ei koskaan anna päätöstiliä holhousviranomaiselle. Päätöstili annetaan valtuuttajalle valtuutuksen päätyttyä tai muulle omaisuuteen oikeutetulle. Toimita omaisuusluettelo liitteineen meille sähköisesti asiointipalvelun kautta edunvalvonta.dvv.fi.

How to use it

Laadi ja toimita omaisuusluettelo liitteineen meille sähköisesti asiointipalvelun kautta. Jos et pysty hoitamaan asiaasi verkossa, toimita omaisuusluettelo liitteineen osoitteeseen Digi- ja väestötietovirasto, PL 1004, 00521 Helsinki. Laadi ja toimita vuosi- ja päätöstili liitteineen meille sähköisesti asiointipalvelun kautta. Jos et pysty hoitamaan asiaasi verkossa, toimita vuosi- ja päätöstili ja sen liitteet kopioina päämiehesi kotipaikkaa lähimpään palvelupaikkaamme. Huomioithan, että emme ota enää vastaan kansioita. Käsittelemme vuosi- ja päätöstilin ja palautamme sen sinulle tarkastuksen jälkeen. Jos toimitat asiakirjat postitse, toimita liiteasiakirjoista kopiot, älä alkuperäisiä asiakirjoja. Älä käytä esimerkiksi niittejä, klemmareita tai muovitaskuja, koska asiakirjat skannataan.

Fee details

Vuosi- ja päätöstilin tarkastusmaksu määräytyy päämiehesi bruttovarojen perusteella. Maksu määräytyy, kun nettotulot vuodessa ylittävät 8147 €. Tarkastusmaksu puolitetaan, jos tilikauden pituus on alle puoli vuotta. Bruttovarat 0 - 34 000 €, maksu tarkastuksesta 52 € 34 001 - 67 000 €, maksu tarkastuksesta 97 € 67 001 - 135 000 €, maksu tarkastuksesta 146 € 135 001 - 336 000 €, maksu tarkastuksesta 240 € 336 001 - 840 000 €, maksu tarkastuksesta 354 € 840 000 - , maksu tarkastuksesta 454 €

ID cards for non-regulated social and healthcare workers and non-clinical healthcare sector staff

ID and smart cards for social welfare and health care personnel are used to reliably identify yourself in information systems and services.

Published by: Digital and Population Data Services Agency · Government organisation

Description language: English

Coverage: All Finland

About this service

Description

ID and smart cards for social welfare and health care personnel are certificate cards used to reliably identify yourself in information systems and services. The card can also be used, for example, to sign electronically and encrypt e-mail. The ID card for non-regulated workers is intended for workers in social welfare and healthcare organisations who have not been granted any professional practice rights in Valvira’s Terhikki or Suosikki registers. An organisation can order ID cards for its non-regulated workers, such as its office workers or information service employees. The ID card is intended for actors outside social welfare and health care who work in social welfare and health care organisations. An ID card can be acquired for information system suppliers or IT consultants, among others. ID cards for non-regulated workers and ID cards for non-clinical social welfare and healthcare personnel are tied to the organisation and the employee’s employment contract. If the employment relationship ends, the registration authority is responsible for revoking the card certificates. ID cards for non-regulated workers and ID cards for non-clinical social welfare and healthcare personnel are valid for five years. The front of the card states the card’s period of validity, the card holder’s name and their position or job title. The cardholder's photograph is printed on the front of the card if the card is ordered with a picture. A new ID card must be ordered if the certificate’s data content or the data printed on the card have changed. You will need to order a new card if your current card is damaged or lost. The delivery time for the card is approximately two weeks.

How to use it

### Authorising another organisation’s registration point Private social welfare and health care organisations often authorise an external, existing registration point for social welfare and health care organisations to order personnel and ID cards. 1. If you work in an organisation that wants to authorise a registration point, contact the registration point to be authorised and agree on the authorisation. You need the following from the authorised registration point: electronic customer number of the registration point, business ID, card delivery address, and contact details of the registrar. 2. Next, conclude an agreement in our e-services. Under the contract details section, select “I will authorise another organisation to act as a registrar”. Fill in the information provided by the registration point that is to be authorised. 3. Once you have concluded the agreement, submit a certificate of employment to the authorised registration point for the individuals for whom the cards are ordered. Submit the certificate as soon as possible after you have signed the agreement on the authorisation. 4. Sign the agreement in the e-services once we have processed your organisation's contract application. The agreement must be signed electronically by one of the following methods of Suomi.fi e-Identification: A certificate card issued by the Digital and Population Data Services Agency, online banking codes or mobile certificate. Once the necessary steps have been taken and the authorisation has entered into force, the persons ordering a card will book a time from the authorised registration point that will order the cards. If you need additional information on authorising a registration authority, you can contact us by email: varmennepalvelut(at)dvv.fi ### Verifying the identity of an applicant The applicant must be identified and their identity verified at the time of ordering the card.

Conditions

ID cards for non-regulated workers and ID cards for non-clinical social welfare and healthcare personnel are tied to the organisation and the employee’s employment contract. The card applicant must have a valid identity document with them to prove their identity. Approved identification documents are: * electronic ID card or passport * valid passport or electronic ID card issued by a Member State of the European Economic Area, Switzerland or San Marino * a passport issued by an authority of another state. If the applicant does not possess any of the aforementioned documents, the police may, at request, verify the applicant’s identity and draw up a separate identification document. The police will send the identification document to the registration authority.

Fee details

ID cards for non-regulated workers are free of charge for persons processing patient data related to patient care as part of their work. ID cards for other non-regulated workers and non-clinical social welfare and healthcare personnel are subject to a fee.

ID cards for regulated social welfare and healthcare professionals

The ID card is intended for social welfare and healthcare professionals, such as doctors, pharmacists, nurses and Bachelors of Social Services.

Published by: Digital and Population Data Services Agency · Government organisation

Description language: English

Coverage: All Finland

About this service

Description

The ID card for regulated social welfare and healthcare professionals is intended for social welfare and healthcare professionals, such as doctors, pharmacists, nurses and bachelors of social services. The professional ID card is used to identify users reliably in healthcare information systems and use electronic signatures in patient documents and prescriptions. A regulated social welfare and health care professional's ID card is personal and it is tied to the card holder’s professional practice rights. A social welfare and healthcare professional can work nationwide in all healthcare sector organisations with the same ID card. The professional ID card is valid for five years, unless there are valid limiting factors to the person’s professional practice rights. The following data is displayed on the front of the card: card validity, the card holder’s registration number, their last and first name, and their professional title. The cardholder's photograph is printed on the front of the card if the card is ordered with a picture. The information on the back of the card includes the card’s serial number. ### Are you renewing your ID card? If your current ID card is valid, you can renew the card in the MyCard service. When you order a new card via MyCard, you can order it either with or without a photo, as indicated by your previous ID card. The photo on the card cannot be changed on MyCard. ### When do I need to order a card from a registration authority? Please order a new ID card from a registration authority if * you are ordering your first ID card * your previous ID card is no longer valid * the chip in your current ID card is damaged ### your current ID card does not have a photo, but you want a photo for your new card, or vice versa.

How to use it

### How do I order my first ID card? If you are ordering your first ID card for professionals, if your previous professional ID card is no longer valid or if the card's chip is broken, order a new card at a public health service registration point. If you work in a pharmacy, order your first ID card primarily from the pharmacy's own registration point. 1. Book an appointment at the registration point. Contact the selected registration point either directly or make an appointment through the appointment service. The appointment service is only available at some registration points. 2. Bring a valid identification document to the registration point: * electronic ID card or passport * passport or electronic ID card issued by a Member State of the European Economic Area, Sitzerland or San Marino * a passport issued by an authority of another state. If you do not have any of the aforementioned documents, the police may, at request, verify your identity and draw up a separate identification document. The police will send the identification document to the registration authority. 3. You will receive your ID card by post approximately two weeks after ordering it. After the card arrives, you will also receive an activation PIN in a separate letter which you will need to activate the card. ### How do I start using the ID card? In order to use your card for e.g. identification purposes or signing prescriptions, you must first activate it. To active your card, you will need an activation code, which is sent to you in a separate letter. During activation, you will create two personal PINs for the card. ### When should I order a new ID card? A new ID card must be ordered if the certificate’s data content or the data printed on the card have changed. You should order a new card if your name or professional rights have changed, for example. You will need to order a new card if your current card is damaged or lost. A lost card must also be reported to the revocation service.

Conditions

The applicant must have a valid practice right in the Terhikki or Suosikki register and a Finnish personal identity code, which has been registered in the Population Information System. If the applicant does not have a Finnish personal identity code registered in the Population Information System and a valid professional practice right in the Terhikki or Suosikki register, a regulated social welfare and health care professional's ID card cannot be ordered.

Fee details

The professional ID card itself is free of charge, but the public health service registration point may charge a fee for its registration services. You can check the possible service fees by contacting the registration point. Some of the registration points indicate the price of their service in the appointment booking service.

Ilmoitus edunvalvonnan tarpeessa olevasta henkilöstä

Voit tehdä ilmoituksen henkilön edunvalvonnan tarpeesta, jos hän ei sairautensa vuoksi kykene itse tai toisen avustamana huolehtimaan asioistaan.

About this service

Description

Voit tehdä ilmoituksen toisen henkilön edunvalvonnan tarpeesta, jos hän ei sairautensa, heikentyneen terveydentilansa tai muun vastaavan syyn vuoksi kykene itse huolehtimaan asioistaan eikä asioita voida hoitaa asianmukaisesti muulla tavoin. Voit tehdä ilmoituksen salassapitosäännöksistä huolimatta. Digi- ja väestötietovirasto selvittää ilmoituksen saatuaan ilmoituksen kohteena olevan henkilön edunvalvonnan tarvetta. Jos henkilö ei terydentilansa vuoksi itse pysty huolehtimaan asioistaan eivätkä ne tule asianmukaisesti muulla tavoin hoidetuiksi, henkilö on edunvalvonnan tarpeessa. Tällöin Digi- ja väestötietovirasto tekee käräjäoikeudelle hakemuksen edunvalvojan määräämiseksi. Edunvalvoja voidaan määrätä hoitamaan toisen henkilön (päämiehen) omaisuutta ja taloudellisia asioita. Edunvalvoja voidaan määrätä hoitamaan myös yksittäistä tehtävää, kuten kiinteistön myyntiä tai perinnönjakoa. Edunvalvoja voidaan määrätä hoitamaan taloudellisia asioita määräajaksi (esim. kahdeksi vuodeksi) tai määräys voi olla voimassa toistaiseksi. Edunvalvojan tehtävä voidaan lakkauttaa, jos edunvalvonnan tarve päättyy. Tietyissä tapauksissa edunvalvoja on mahdollista määrätä edustamaan päämiestään myös tämän henkilöä koskevassa asiassa, kuten hoitopaikasta päättämisessä, jos henkilö itse ei kykene enää tällaista asiaa ymmärtämään. Edunvalvojan tehtävään voidaan määrätä yksityishenkilö (esim. sukulainen tai muu läheinen henkilö), jos hän antaa tehtävään suostumuksensa ja on tehtävään sopiva. Edunvalvojan tehtävään voidaan määrätä myös yleinen edunvalvoja, joka hoitaa päätyönään useiden henkilöiden taloudellisia asioita. Taloudellisia asioita hoitava edunvalvoja on tilivelvollinen toiminnastaan Digi- ja väestötietovirastolle. Edunvalvojalla on oikeus saada kohtuullinen palkkio tehtävänsä hoitamisesta ja korvaus tarpeellisista kuluistaan. Edunvalvoja ei saa kertoa päämiehensä asioista muille ilman päämiehen lupaa.

How to use it

Voit tehdä Digi- ja väestötietovirastolle ilmoituksen henkilöstä, joka mielestäsi tarvitsee edunvalvontaa. * Jos teet ilmoituksen yksityishenkilönä, täytä Digi- ja väestötietoviraston sivuilla oleva ilmoitus edunvalvonnan tarpeessa olevasta henkilöstä ja lähetä se virastoon. * Jos teet ilmoituksen aammattihenkilönä työtehtäviisi liittyen, täytä Digi- ja väestötietoviraston sivuilla oleva ammattihenkilön ilmoitus edunvalvonnan tarpeessa olevasta henkilöstä ja lähetä se virastoon. Ei haittaa, vaikka et tietäisi vastausta kaikkiin lomakkeen kohtiin. * Muista kuitenkin perustella, miksi ilmoituksen kohde tarvitsee edunvalvojaa. Huomaa, että pelkkä sairaus tai palvelutalossa asuminen eivät ole riittäviä perusteluita, jos henkilön asiat tulevat muutoin asianmukaisesti hoidetuiksi. * Olisi hyvä, jos pystyisit kertomaan ilmoituksen kohdetta hoitavan lääkärin yhteystiedot mahdollisimman tarkasti, jotta voimme pyytää häneltä lääkärinlausunnon. * Ota myös kantaa, kuka edunvalvojaksi voisi ryhtyä. Jos ehdotat yksityishenkilöä, keskustele asiasta ensin hänen kanssaan.

Conditions

Ilmoituksen tekeminen edellyttää, että henkilö ei sairautensa, heikentyneen terveydentilansa tai muun vastaavan syyn takia pysty itse huolehtimaan asioistaan eikä hänen asioitaan voida hoitaa asianmukaisesti edunvalvontaa kevyemmillä vaihtoehdoilla. Voit tehdä ilmoituksen salassapitosäännöksistä huolimatta.

Fee details

Palvelu on ilmoituksen tekijälle maksuton. Sen sijaan se on yleensä maksullinen ilmoituksen kohteelle. Näet voimassa olevat suoritemaksut Digi- ja väestötietoviraston verkkosivuilta.

Description language: Finnish

Coverage: All Finland

About this service

Description

Voit ilmoittaa useita kansallisuuksia väestötietojärjestelmään. Digi- ja väestötietovirasto merkitsee kansalaisuuden väestötietojärjestelmään voimassa olevan passin, alkuperäisen kansalaistamispäätöksen tai mahdollisen muun luotettavan selvityksen perusteella. Jos olet Suomen kansalainen, sinulla on velvollisuus ilmoittaa tieto saamastasi ulkomaan kansalaisuudesta Suomen väestötietojärjestelmään. Suomen kansalaisuuden menettäminen Jos olet sekä Suomen että jonkin toisen valtion kansalainen, saatat menettää Suomen kansalaisuuden automaattisesti 22-vuotiaana. Jos sinulla on riittävä yhteys Suomeen, et menetä Suomen kansalaisuuttasi. Sinulla on riittävä yhteys Suomeen mm. jos 18–22-vuoden ikäisenä olet ilmoittanut Digi- ja väestötietovirastolle tai Suomen edustustolle haluavasi säilyttää Suomen kansalaisuuden tai olet hakenut Suomen passia tai henkilökorttia, ja sinulle on se myönnetty. Jos epäilet voineesi menettää Suomen kansalaisuuden ole yhteydessä Suomen edustustoon tai Digi- ja väestötietovirastoon.

How to use it

Toimita Digi- ja väestötietovirastoon alkuperäinen päätös tai todistus kansalaisuudestasi tai esitä voimassa oleva passi. Jos olet Suomen kansalainen, voit toimittaa selvityksen myös lähimpään Suomen edustustoon. Päätöksen tai todistuksen mahdollisista laillistusvaatimuksista katso lisäksi erillinen ohje. Jos haet Suomen kansalaisuutta, ole yhteydessä Maahanmuuttovirastoon.

Lahjailmoituksen rekisteröinti

Lahjailmoituksella lahjan voi suojata lahjanantajan velkojien vaatimuksilta.

Published by: Digital and Population Data Services Agency · Government organisation

Description language: Finnish

Coverage: All Finland

About this service

Description

Lahjan saaja tai antaja voi tehdä Digi- ja väestötietovirastolle lahjailmoituksen. Lahjailmoituksen tekeminen estää sen, että lahjanantajan mahdolliset velkojat voisivat vaatia lahjan palauttamista lahjanantajan velkojen maksua varten. Lahjailmoituksen tekemisestä alkaa kulua aika, jonka päättymisen jälkeen lahjanantajan velkojat eivät voi enää vaatia lahjaa palautettavaksi. ### Milloin lahjasta kannattaa ilmoittaa? Lahjasta ei ole pakko ilmoittaa Digi- ja väestötietovirastolle. Lahjailmoitus kannattaa tehdä vain, jos seuraavat neljä ehtoa täyttyvät: * Lahja ei sisällä maapohjaa eli kiinteistöä. * Lahjan arvo on merkittävä. * Lahja on lähisukulaisten välinen. * Halutaan varmistaa, että lahjansaajaa ei voi vaatia palauttamaan lahjaa, jos lahjanantaja joutuu konkurssi- tai ulosottotilanteeseen. Ilmoitus kannattaa tehdä mahdollisimman pian lahjoituksen jälkeen. Ilmoita maapohjan eli kiinteistön lahjoituksesta Maanmittauslaitokselle. Lahjailmoituksella ei mene mitään tietoja Verohallinnolle. Tee lahjaveroilmoitus tarvittaessa Verohallinnolle erikseen.

How to use it

1. Ilmoita lahjasta Digi- ja väestötietovirastolle. Teet sen helpoiten verkossa. Tarvitset verkkolomakkeen käyttöön verkkopankkitunnukset tai mobiilivarmenteen. Lahjakirjaa ei tarvitse liittää ilmoituksen liitteeksi. Jos et pysty käyttämään verkkolomaketta, täytä ilmoituslomake ja toimita se postitse osoitteeseen Digi- ja väestötietovirasto, PL 1003, 00521 Helsinki. 2. Olet ilmoittanut lahjasta sinä päivänä, kun ilmoitus on saapunut meille. 3. Lähetämme sinulle laskun erikseen.

Conditions

Lahjailmoitus kannattaa tehdä vain, jos seuraavat neljä ehtoa täyttyvät: * Lahja ei sisällä maapohjaa eli kiinteistöä. * Lahjan arvo on merkittävä. * Lahja on lähisukulaisten välinen. * Halutaan varmistaa, että lahjansaajaa ei voi vaatia palauttamaan lahjaa, jos lahjanantaja joutuu konkurssi- tai ulosottotilanteeseen.

Fee details

Kun yksi lahjanantaja antaa yhdelle lahjanantajalle lahjan (lahja voi sisältää monta eri omaisuuslajia, kuten auton ja osakkeita): 87 euroa. Kun lahjanantajia tai lahjansaajia on kaksi: 2 x 87 euroa.

Last name upon marriage

When requesting an examination of impediments to marriage, you must indicate which last name you use after the marriage ceremony.

Published by: Digital and Population Data Services Agency · Government organisation

Description language: English

Coverage: Finland, excluding Åland

About this service

Description

When requesting an examination of impediments to marriage, you must indicate which last name you use after the marriage ceremony. You can keep your last names as they are or change your name. Changing your last name is free of charge in connection with a marriage ceremony, when: * you take the other spouse's name as a common last name * one or both spouses take a compound last name. A compound surname may contain no more than two surnames. They can be combined with a hyphen or written separately. Other options for a last name, such as a new last name, are also possible. In these cases, submit a separate application for a change of name, preferably after the marriage ceremony. Name changes like this are subject to a fee.

How to use it

* Study the different options on the Digital and Population Data Services Agency’s website before requesting an examination of impediments to marriage. * Request an examination of impediments in our online service and indicate which last name you will use after the marriage ceremony. * Changed last names will be recorded in the Population Information System in a few days after the marriage ceremony. You will be sent a new Kela card after the name change, but you must obtain a new passport, personal identity card and driving licence yourself.

Conditions

You need your spouse’s permission if you want to use their last name or part of their compound last name. Your spouse can give their consent when you request the examination of impediments. A last name you have received from a previous spouse cannot be used as a shared last name or part of a compound name with your new spouse. The examination of impediments will also verify that the name you give is lawful. If necessary, we will ask for a clarification. The lawfulness of your name will be stated on the certificate of impediments to marriage.

Marriage ceremony and marriage registration

Marriages are registered in the Population Information System. Digital and Population Data Services Agency can perform a civil marriage ceremony.

Published by: Digital and Population Data Services Agency · Government organisation

Description language: English

Coverage: All Finland

About this service

Description

A marriage ceremony can be a civil marriage ceremony or a church wedding. Civil marriage ceremonies are available with us and the District Court. Church weddings are available at the Evangelical Lutheran Church and the Orthodox Church, as well as at certain registered religious communities. We marry couples of the same or different gender at our service location, i.e. the Local Register Office, in accordance with the marriage script of the marriage decree. The officiator will be a district registrar or a notary public. During service hours, the marriage ceremony is free of charge at the local register offices. You may also request to have your marriage ceremony at another location, such as your booked party venue. In such a case, the ceremony is subject to a fee. The marriage ceremony cannot take place until the impediments to marriage have been examined. You should request the examination of impediments well in advance, but no earlier than four months before your marriage date. At least two witnesses of 15 years of age or older must be present for the marriage ceremony. You can bring your own witnesses, such as friends of family. The Agency can also provide the two required witnesses. The couple must prove their identities to the officiator during the ceremony. Marriages that are officiated by religious communities or district courts are registered in the Population Information System by the Digital and Population Data Services Agency. We register marriages based on the officiator’s notification.

How to use it

* First, order an examination of impediments to marriage in our online service. The certificate is valid for 4 months from the date of issue. * Reserve a time for the wedding ceremony in our electronic booking system. You can also book a reservation on the phone, by email, or by visiting one of our service locations.

Conditions

* Before the marriage ceremony, the couple must request an examination of impediments to marriage. This ensures that no impediments under Finnish law exist for the marriage. * The impediment examination certificate must be submitted to the officiator before the marriage ceremony can take place. * The engaged parties have to prove their identity to the officiator before the marriage ceremony.

Fee details

Officiating a marriage ceremony at a Local Register Office during office hours is free of charge. A marriage ceremony to be performed outside office hours must be agreed upon separately with the officiator. A marriage ceremony performed outside the Local Register Office during office hours or outside office hours is subject to a fee. In addition, you will be charged for the officiator’s travel expenses. For more information on fees, see the Local Register Offices’ price list.

Membership in a religious community

You can join by submitting a notification directly to a religious community. You can leave a religious community in the Suomi.fi Web Service.

Published by: Digital and Population Data Services Agency · Government organisation

Description language: English

Coverage: All Finland

About this service

Description

### Joining a religious community You can join a religious community that accepts you as their member. Send a notification of joining directly to the religious community that you wish to join. Religious communities decide themselves whether their members can also belong to other communities. ### Leaving a religious community You can leave a religious community * on Suomi.fi Personal data page * by sending a notification to the religious community or * by sending a notification to the Digital and Population Data Services Agency. Leaving a religious community is registered in the Population Data System. If you make the notification of resignation on the Suomi.fi Personal Data page, the resignation will be registered in the Population Information System immediately. You will also receive a written confirmation of your resignation. You do not need to notify the Finnish Tax Administration when you resign because the matter is automatically considered in the taxation. Your next year’s taxes are determined based on the data recorded in the Population Data System on the last day of the previous year.

How to use it

### Join a religious community using the form If you wish to become a member of a religious community, submit a notification directly to the religious community. You can use the Notification of Joining a Religious Community form. ### Resign from a religious community via Web Service 1. Identify yourself on the Suomi.fi Personal Data page. 2. Select the "Membership in a religious community". 3. Send a resignation request. To log in to the service, you need online banking IDs, mobile certificate or identity card, and a card reader on your computer. Please note that the electronic service is linked to your individual personal identity code, so you can only notify information in Suomi.fi on your own behalf. ### Using the Resign from Religious Community form You can send the resignation request in writing to the religious community from which you are resigning or use the form to inform the Digital and Population Data Services Agency. Submit the notification using the Notification of Resignation from a Religious Community form. ### Joining or resigning a child from a religious community As the child’s guardian, you can notify * the joining of a child with a paper notification to the religious community * the resigning of a child with a paper notification to the religious community or with an online form / paper notification to the Digital and Population Data Services Agency. Please note that the written consent of all guardians is required for the notification. If you are submitting the notification on behalf of a child aged 12 to 17, you will need the child’s consent. If you are aged over 15 and leaving a religious community, you can submit the notification yourself. However, you must attach your guardians’ written consent to the notification.

Conditions

* Persons who have reached the age of 18 decide on their religious affiliation independently. * The religious affiliation of a child who has reached the age of 12 can be changed only with the child’s consent. * A child who has reached the age of 15 can, with written consent from the guardians, independently resign from a religious community. * The child’s religious affiliation is not automatically determined by the guardians’ religious affiliation. Instead, a child’s resignation from a religious community is always based on the guardians’ separate declaration of their will.

Muut julkisen notaarin antamat todistukset

Julkinen notaari voi antaa elossaolotodistuksen ja todistuksen Suomen lain sisällöstä sekä vahvistaa ansioluettelon oikeaksi.

Published by: Digital and Population Data Services Agency · Government organisation

Description language: Finnish

Coverage: All Finland

About this service

Description

Tarvitset julkisen notaarin antaman elossaolotodistuksen perunkirjoitusta varten silloin, jos et ole Suomessa kirjoilla. Jos saat ulkomailta esimerkiksi eläkettä, voi myös ulkomainen vakuutusyhtiö joskus vaatia julkisen notaarin vahvistaman elossaolotodistuksen. Voit tarvita todistusta Suomen lain sisällöstä silloin, jos vieraan valtion viranomainen pyytää sinua todistamaan, mitä Suomen laissa säädetään tietystä asiasta. Julkinen notaari voi vahvistaa laatimasi ansioluettelon oikeaksi, jos tarvitset sellaista esimerkiksi työnhaussa.

How to use it

Mitä sinun tulee tietää ennen kuin asioit Digi- ja väestötietovirastossa: * sinun täytyy todistaa henkilöllisyytesi (elossaolotodistus) * sinulla täytyy olla alkuperäiset asiakirjat mukanasi (ansioluettelo) * lainsäädäntötodistuksen voit pyytää esim. puhelimitse.

Conditions

Tarvitset julkisen notaarin antaman elossaolotodistuksen perunkirjoitusta varten silloin, jos et ole Suomessa kirjoilla. Joskus myös ulkomainen vakuutusyhtiö voi vaatia todistusta.

About this service

Description

Nimipalvelun kautta voit hakea väestötietojärjestelmään tallennettujen etu- ja sukunimien lukumääriä Suomessa. Voit myös tutkia tilastoja yleisimmistä nimistä eri ajanjaksoilta. Vanhimmat nimitiedot ulottuvat jopa 1800-luvulle. Väestötietojärjestelmä sisältää myös harvinaisia, esimerkiksi ulkomaista alkuperää olevia etunimiä, joita ei voida automaattisesti hyväksyä nimeksi vastasyntyneelle lapselle Suomessa. Nimien rekisteröimisestä järjestelmään päättävät maistraatit ja seurakunnat. Käytettävissä olevat nimihaut: etunimihaku, sukunimihaku, yleisimmät etunimet, yleisimmät sukunimet.

How to use it

Hae yksittäisiä etu- ja sukunimitietoja kirjoittamalla otsakepalkin hakuruutuun haettava nimi. Kirjoita sukunimi virallisessa muodossa, esim. Virtanen, Virtanen-Lahtinen, von Taffelsson. Kirjoita etunimi muodollisesti oikein esim. Maria, Matti-Juhani.

About this service

Description

The following can be registered in the Population Information System: * non-disclosure for direct marketing purposes * non-disclosure of contact information * non-disclosure of customer register update * non-disclosure for genealogical research purposes * non-disclosure for public registers. The non-disclosure orders are personal, and they are valid until further notice. That means they do not need to be renewed, for example, due to a change of address.

Notification of a child's name

As the guardian of a newborn child, you must report your child’s name and native language to the Population Information System.

Published by: Digital and Population Data Services Agency · Government organisation

Description language: English

Coverage: Finland, excluding Åland

About this service

Description

As the guardian of a newborn child, you must report your child’s name and native language to the Population Information System. The child’s mother will automatically receive a form for reporting the details by post. The form arrives within approximately 2-4 weeks of the birth of the child. You do not need to use the paper form, but you can also submit the details online. If the child has two guardians, you will submit the notification together. Report the child’s details to the Digital and Population Data Services Agency (DVV) within three months of birth. If the child is baptised as a member of the Evangelical Lutheran or Orthodox Church of Finland, submit the notification to the parish. Once the child’s details have been registered in the Population Information System, the data will be forwarded to the authorities. The Digital and Population Data Services Agency will not send you a separate confirmation of the registration of the child’s details. ### Notification of first name You can give your child 1–4 first names. You cannot give your child a first name or a combination of first names that may cause offence or harm or that is inappropriate as a first name. The child’s first name must correspond to the established naming practice. Girls must be given girls’ names and boys must be given boys’ names. Both girls and boys can be given gender-neutral names. The first name may not closely resemble a last name. You can use the Digital and Population Data Services Agency's name service (available in Finnish) to determine the prevalence and popularity of different first names. ### Notification of last name If the parents have a common last name or a common compound last name, it will also become the last name of the common child. If the child only has one parent, the child may only receive the last name or compound last name of that parent. A child cannot be given the last name or compound last name of a person whose parenthood has not been confirmed. If the parents have different last names or compound last names but they have joint custody of a common child, the child born later will receive the same last name or compound last name as their older full sibling. When parents who are having their first common child have different last names, they can choose the child’s last name from the following options: * last name or compound last name of one of the parents * one name in the compound last name of one of the parents * a new compound last name based on the parents’ last names. If the parent is connected to a foreign state, for example on the basis of their nationality or marriage, the name of the child may be the last name or compound last name of the parent or grandparent or both. In this case, the name must correspond to the naming practices of the country in question, and the parents must provide a written account to demonstrate this. ### Notification of native language You can only notify one native language for your child in the Population Information System.

How to use it

### Submit the child’s details using the online form * To use the online form, you will need online banking IDs or a mobile certificate. * Please submit the details only once. * Make sure that the email address of the other guardian is correct to get a link for confirmation. ### Other guardian, please confirm the submitted data using a separate online form * The other guardian will receive a link via email, to fill in the online confirmation form. ### Are you unable to handle the matter online? If you cannot submit the child’s details using the online form, submit the paper form sent to you to the Digital and Population Data Services Agency at P.O. Box 1003, 00521 Helsinki.

Conditions

You can provide the details of a newborn child who does not yet have a name in the Population Information System.
