Finnish tax law.
Your language.
You moved to Finland. Started a company. Now Verohallinto is a wall of Finnish PDFs and Google Translate. We've been there — Baslic is built by a Turkish founder in Espoo for exactly this.
Built by an expat. We pick up the founder phone in TR / EN / FI.

I pick up the founder phone in Turkish, English, and Finnish. Email works in any of the three.
ozdemir@baslic.comFour things every expat founder hits. All solvable.
- The pain
MyTax is half-translated. The important half isn't.
How Baslic fixes itTimo speaks 30+ languages. Whatever you write in, you get Verohallinto-correct Finnish rules — explained in your language, with the ALV section cited.
- The pain
Your home country's tax logic doesn't map to Finland.
How Baslic fixes itBaslic is built from Finnish ALV rules — not generic global tax logic translated to Finnish. Per-line VAT, 0% exports, reverse-charge — all native.
- The pain
You DM the one Turkish-speaking accountant in Helsinki, then wait.
How Baslic fixes itGet a deterministic answer in seconds. Show it to your accountant with the ruleId attached — they verify in 30 seconds instead of researching.
- The pain
Finnish-only marketing pages and onboarding flows.
How Baslic fixes itBaslic UI ships in EN / FI / DA / TR — and Timo answers in any language you write in. Onboarding takes 10 minutes, in your language.
Ask in your language. Get the Finnish rule that applies.
Same B2B SaaS reverse-charge question, six different languages, one Verohallinto-correct answer with the ruleId attached.

temp = 0 · Verohallinto-correct
And 24+ more: German, French, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Hindi, Urdu, Bengali, Vietnamese, Thai, Indonesian, Malay, Ukrainian, Persian, Hebrew, Greek, Romanian… you get the idea.
“I read MyTax through Google Translate.
If a tool explains Verohallinto in Turkish, I'll subscribe before lunch.”
— Tarık, 36, Espoo. The expat consultant we built the multilingual Timo for.
The founder is an expat too.
I moved to Finland and registered Fidanet Solution Oy in Espoo. I've been the person Google-translating Verohallinto pages at midnight. I've been the person whose accountant said “just read the Finnish” and meant it.
Baslic is what I wished existed. Timo answers in the language you actually think in. The founder picks up the phone in Turkish.

Questions expat founders ask.
Will Baslic submit my ALV declaration to Verohallinto for me?+
Not directly — Verohallinto requires you (or your authorised accountant) to submit via MyTax / OmaVero. Baslic prepares a clean, classified, ALV-ready file you upload in 30 seconds — or your accountant can post automatically via Procountor / Netvisor.
Can I run my Finnish OY in my home-country language and have my Finnish accountant still understand the books?+
Yes. You operate Baslic in your language. Your accountant operates the same data in Finnish — both views see the same ruleIds, same Verohallinto codes, same numbers. The translation is in the UI, not in the data.
I just registered my OY and don't have a Y-tunnus VAT registration yet. Useful?+
Yes — start collecting receipts and Baslic stores them. When your VAT registration comes through, we backfill the input VAT for the deductible quarter you missed.
Do you offer support in Turkish?+
Yes — the founder (me, Özdemir) is Turkish. I reply in TR / EN / FI personally to early users. Email ozdemir@baslic.com.
Stop translating. Start trusting.
Forward your first receipt in your language. Get Finnish rules applied automatically. Reply to the founder in Turkish if you want.
