Commissioning of the printing, enveloping and distribution service of Suomi.fi Messages possible as from November

It will be possible for public administration organisations to start to use the printing, enveloping and distribution service of Suomi.fi Messages in November/December 2020.

With the introduction of the service, sending documents (such as decisions, notifications and other documents) will be as simple as possible for organisations using Suomi.fi Messages. When the organisation uses Suomi.fi Messages, the messages will be sent through the printing, enveloping and distribution service in one go regardless of whether the recipient uses Suomi.fi Messages or wants the messages to be sent through paper mail. Organisations will no longer need to put their paper mailing out to tender separately or manage a separate mailing service.

Who can use the service?

The printing, enveloping and distribution service of Suomi.fi Messages can be used to print, envelop and distribute only messages that have been sent to Suomi.fi Messages by a public administration organisation. In other words, the organisation must be using Suomi.fi Messages.

For needs related to other printing, enveloping and distribution services, the user organisations must arrange the corresponding services or parts of them themselves.

When is it possible to start the commissioning of the service?

As from the beginning of November 2020, organisations already using Suomi.fi Messages can submit a notification of connecting to the printing, enveloping and distribution service. They can then start testing the service according to the instructions they have received. The actual sending of messages will be possible as from the beginning of December 2020.

Customers who have been using the printing, enveloping and distribution service based on the Digital and Population Data Services Agency's temporary agreement with Edita Prima Oy, the provider of the service, can transfer to the new printing, enveloping and distribution service as from 18 January 2021.
