Suomi.fi e-Authorizations to replace the Katso service - See the necessary e-service specific mandate matters

The Suomi.fi e-Authorizations Mandate service provided by officials opened in June. The service allows parties that cannot independently grant electronic mandates in Suomi.fi e-Authorizations to grant electronic mandates and act on behalf of other parties.

In organisations that need the Mandate service provided by officials granting a mandate will usually involve the replacement of Katso roles with Suomi.fi e-Authorizations mandate themes. A list has been compiled of key Katso roles and the corresponding mandate themes is attached to this news item.

Each e-service provides instructions for its clients and end users on how to transition to the Suomi.fi service and on service-specific changes and schedules. The link to each authority’s instructions is available on the front page of the Katso website https://yritys.tunnistus.fi/ in the section ”Use of Katso service will be discontinued”.

Every Katso role must be changed to Suomi.fi e-Authorizations so that the use of different e-services can continue after the Katso shutdown. It is also important to note that mandate themes can be added and that the authority responsible for each e-service always defines their use and need.

The client submits a mandate application to the official at https://www.suomi.fi/e-authorizations/mandate-application
