What is a Valtti card?
The Occupational Safety and Health Act requires that every person working on a construction site must have an ID card with a clear picture, the person's name, employer's details and tax number. The Valtti card means of identification that contains all this information and identifies the construction worker when he or she enters the construction site.
Valtti card and light entrepreneurship
All self-employed persons working on behalf of invoicing service companies, i.e. light self-employed persons, must have the text "Self-employed person" on their Valtti card. The new Self-employed Valet Cards were introduced in May 2023.
As a light entrepreneur, you can also sell your expertise to multiple clients and invoice all your assignments through the same invoicing service. This means that one Valtti card is enough for one light entrepreneur.
