verovuodessa

Verovuodessa is a Finnish linguistic and administrative term meaning “in the tax year.” It is the inessive singular form of verovuosi, the noun that denotes the period used for calculating and assessing taxation. In official and legal texts, verovuodessa is used to specify the time frame of income, deductions, credits, and tax liability that is under review or reporting.

In Finland, verovuosi typically refers to the tax year for which income is reported and taxed. For individuals, the verovuosi generally coincides with the calendar year, running from January 1 to December 31. For companies, the tax year may be defined by the accounting year and can differ from the calendar year unless the company opts for a standard calendar-year basis. The distinction matters for deadlines, such as when a tax return (veroilmoitus) is filed and when taxes are assessed and payments are due, all of which are stated relative to verovuodessa.

Linguistic notes: verovuodessa is the locative form used when listing times or conditions within that year, e.g., “verovuodessa 2023.” The construction is common in financial and administrative language and is understood by taxpayers and professionals.

Related terms include verovuosi (tax year), veroilmoitus (tax declaration), and verotus (taxation). See also guidance from the Finnish Tax Administration on tax years.
