## Overview

This section covers three Finland-specific VAT and tax reporting topics. Each is a single page and there are no subtopics, so you can read them independently.

One page explains Finnish Intrastat reports, which EU companies use to report trade movements with other EU countries, and the options for filing them. Another covers the VAT-VIES declaration, a tax reporting requirement that includes the EC sales list. The third explains how to print VAT information on sales invoices using VAT posting groups, so tax details appear for each item at line level.

Start with the page that matches your task: invoice layout for VAT on documents, the VAT-VIES page for EC sales reporting, or the Intrastat page for trade movement reporting.

## Key points

- Finnish Intrastat reports cover trade movements with other EU countries and can be filed as a file or entered manually on a form.
- VAT-VIES declaration is a Finnish tax reporting requirement and relates to the EC sales list.
- VAT information on sales invoices is printed using VAT posting groups.
- VAT amounts are shown at line level for each item on invoices to support tax compliance.
- The section has three pages and no subtopics.
