Finland, who began their DAC6 reporting back in July 2020, have recently confirmed that they will be allowing DAC6 reports to be filed via XML from the end of November 2020.

Until now, DAC6 reports in Finland were required to be submitted via an Excel-based tool. However, the new version of the Finnish reporting portal Ilmoitin.fi is expected to be opened at the end of November 2020 and will enable XML-filing. The XML schema and technical guide will be published once they have been finalised.
