Edilex Legal Information Service

Edilex is a continuously updated legal information service produced by Edita Publishing Ltd. It has been created as a tool for any professional needing knowledge of the legislation. Edilex offers all significant legal information in one address, including Finland's most extensive database of national legislation, a daily news service, law books, articles, journals and plenty of other material. Most of the services are liable to charge.

Edilex Basic Service (Peruspalvelu) consists of a legal news service, electronic books, articles and other background information about legislation, as well as up-to-date databases on legislation, official information and legal praxis. The Basic Service includes, for instance, Finland's largest database of national legislation that is systematically presented and edited and updated weekly. The news service keeps an eye on the latest events in the field of legal issues, and the articles contain a remarkable collection of judicial material not necessarily available anywhere else. Finnish judicial journals Defensor Legis, Lakimies and Oikeustieto are also available - with certain limitations - as electronic versions (PDF).

Edilex Environment (Ympäristö) is an extension of the Basic Service that contains all the above mentioned material added with a follow-up and guidance service. It is customed especially to enterprises having to keep up with the changes in environmental legislation as well as the occupational safety and health legislation.

Edilex Additional Services (Lisäpalvelut) are services that are related to a certain field of judicial information. They are available also separately, but ordering both the basic service and complementing it by the additional services needed is certainly worth the effort.

Edilex Value-added Taxation (Arvonlisäverotus) deals with the Value-added Tax Act and its application from various view points, practically and concisely. The service is updated by tax experts from KPMG.

Edilex Trade Taxation (Elinkeinoverotus) presents the fundamentals of trade taxation from taxability of earnings to establishing a firm and tax planning. International taxation and working abroad are also scrutinized, as well as the transfer of a firm to a descendant and winding up of an enterprise. The authors are tax experts working for KPMG.

Edilex Person Taxation (Henkilöverotus) is based on the handbook published by the tax administration. It is a guide to the regulations and practice of income taxation of employees, pensioners and entrepreneurs. The writers are the best experts on person taxation in Finland. The publication is in two languages, Finnish and Swedish.

Edilex Lawmail (Lakiposti) is a free service that mails you a list of new regulations and government bills as soon as they are published.

Edilex Pro is an educational service for every professional needing legal knowledge. It is the newest product in Edilex product family. Edilex Pro seminars are educational courses where experts present an upcoming change in legislation with its background and practical applications.
