How to transfer a responsibility mark from one company to another
You can transfer your company’s responsibility mark to another company in the e-service of the Finnish Safety and Chemicals Agency (Tukes). As a result, the registration of your company’s responsibility mark will end, and Tukes will send a decision to your company in the e-service.
Please follow intructions:
- Go to the e-service, select “Tukes-palvelut” (Tukes services) in the list and then “Nimileima-asiat” (Responsibility mark). Log in using your online banking codes or a mobile certificate, and select “Nimileiman siirto yritykseltä toiselle” (Transferring a responsibility mark from one company to another).
- Please enter carefully the information requested in the online form, including information about the company to which you are transferring the responsibility mark, and click “Lähetä” (Send).
- The new company will receive information about the transfer by email, after which it must apply for the responsibility mark in the e-service (see instructions on how to apply for a responsibility mark).
Once Tukes has processed the case, a decision on ending the registration of the responsibility mark will be sent to your company, i.e. the company that transfers the responsibility mark to another company, in the e-service.
Fees
Transferring a responsibility mark from one company to another is free of charge, as well as stopping the registration of responsibility mark. However, a new company must apply for the use of the mark in the e-service. For the company applying for the use of the responsibility mark, the application and registration are subject to a charge.
Check the fees in the Tukes price list.
