When you invoice through us using your own business ID, we handle the required VAT filings and payments on your behalf. We collect the VAT listed on your invoices and pay it to the Tax Administration when filing your return.
Schedule
The filing deadline depends on your company’s tax year. The deadline is typically the 12th day of the month. If that day falls on a holiday or weekend, the deadline is the following business day.
A VAT return must be filed for each tax period, even if your business was inactive during that period.

What might prevent you from filing a report?
Submitting your company’s tax returns is a seamless process once you’ve granted us access to your company’s data. We prepare the VAT return based on the information in our system and submit it to the Tax Administration approximately two weeks before the deadline.
After filing your return, you will see the amount of VAT due on the home page of your OmaVero service. You do not need to pay this amount if we have filed your return. We will pay the amount shown as outstanding to the Tax Administration before the due date. The amount due will be removed from the front page no later than the day after the due date.
Frequently Asked Questions About the VAT Return
Why does OmaVero show that I have a balance due?
You will seethe outstanding VAT payment in OmaVero after we have filed your VAT return. We will pay the amount before the due date. The amount we pay will be applied to the outstanding balance no later than the day after the due date (the 13th of the month), at which point the outstanding amount will be removed from the OmaVero homepage. You can view the payment by clicking on “Balance Details” on the OmaVero homepage.
Why does the app say "missing"?
The VAT periodis not marked as completed until the period has ended. That is why, for the current or recently ended period, the status may briefly show as "missing." We will submit the report on time—and nothing is actually missing.
What if I receive a demand letter?
Ifyou receive a letter from the Tax Administration regarding a missing tax return, the reason is almost always a missing business authorization. Check the authorizations immediately in the app:Menu → Tax payment details. If the screen is blank, the authorizations are missing. Grant the authorizations without delay. We will file the missing VAT return within a week.
Please note that the Tax Administration may impose a penalty for late filing. If the filing is late due to missing authorizations, you are personally responsible for paying the penalty.
