Tyoon is not a law firm, accounting firm, employer or staffing agency. Clients publish independent assignments on the service, which service providers can respond to with their own offer. The service provider is responsible for the accuracy of the information they provide, their qualifications, the quality of their work, confidentiality, data protection and their statutory obligations.
Under which business form can services be offered?
Tyoon can be used by specialists and companies operating under various business forms. However, the business form alone does not demonstrate a specialist’s qualifications. The client should be able to assess the service provider’s education, experience, registrations and any official approvals before commissioning the work.
Light entrepreneur
Light entrepreneurship may suit a specialist who offers limited administrative or financial-administration support services on a side basis. Light entrepreneurship itself does not grant the right to use protected professional titles or to carry out tasks that require special approval, a licence or an official status.
Services offered as a light entrepreneur may include, for example:
- organising vouchers
- preparing invoices
- entering data into a financial administration system
- formatting reports
- technical preparation of documents
- general administrative assistance
- compiling information supplied by the client
- expert tasks billed through an invoicing service
Sole trader
A sole trader form suits an independent bookkeeper, financial administration expert, lawyer or other specialist who regularly offers services under their own name or business brand. A sole trader can use Tyoon to find new clients and complement their client base with one-off or ongoing assignments.
As a sole trader you may work, for example, as:
- independent bookkeepers
- payroll specialists
- financial administration consultants
- contract specialists
- business advisors
- lawyers
- data protection specialists
- people offering financial administration support services
Limited company (Oy)
An accounting firm, law firm, attorney firm or consultancy organised as a limited company can use Tyoon to find new clients and requests for proposals. The company decides which assignments it responds to and which of its staff carries out the work.
The service may suit a company that offers, for example:
- ongoing bookkeeping
- payroll
- tax and financial advice
- corporate legal services
- contract services
- data protection services
- multi-specialist service packages
- ongoing outsourced financial administration
- ongoing corporate legal support
General partnership or limited partnership
A general partnership or limited partnership can also register as a service provider. This may suit a small accounting firm, a family business or a consultancy shared by several specialists.
Law firm or licensed trial counsel
Tasks related to court proceedings and assisting in court may require the status of an attorney, public legal aid counsel or licensed trial counsel. Tyoon does not automatically verify every service provider’s right to appear in court on a client’s behalf. The client and the service provider must confirm eligibility before accepting the assignment.
The service provider must clearly state in their profile:
- their professional title
- their education
- any licence as trial counsel
- membership of the bar
- their areas of specialisation
- the languages in which the service can be provided
- their operating area
Auditor or audit firm
Statutory auditing may be offered only by a duly approved and registered auditor or audit firm. An ordinary bookkeeper or financial administration assistant may not market their service as statutory auditing without the appropriate approval.
If you offer audit services, state in your profile:
- your auditor category
- your registration
- the audit firm you represent
- your industry experience
- any circumstances that may affect independence
Bookkeeping and ongoing financial administration
Every company needs properly organised bookkeeping. An assignment may cover the company’s entire financial administration or only a specific area.
Bookkeeping tasks may include:
- • monthly bookkeeping
- • recording vouchers
- • account coding
- • reconciling bank transactions
- • accounts payable and receivable
- • cash bookkeeping
- • VAT processing
- • producing reports
- • closing the financial year
- • organising bookkeeping materials
- • liaison between the client and the authorities
In your offer, it is worth stating what the service includes, how many vouchers or transactions are included in the price, which software is used, who delivers the materials, how often reporting is done, whether authority filings are included in the price, whether advice is charged separately and how additional work is priced.
Voucher processing and supporting financial administration tasks
Not all financial administration assignments are actual bookkeeping.
A client may need help, for example, with:
- • scanning receipts
- • organising vouchers
- • saving purchase invoices
- • checking expense claims
- • technically preparing invoices
- • clarifying missing vouchers
- • naming and archiving documents
- • delivering materials to the bookkeeper
- • implementing a financial administration system
In your profile, clearly distinguish actual bookkeeping services from administrative assistance.
Payroll
A company may look for a payroll specialist for a one-off situation or ongoing cooperation.
Payroll tasks may include:
- • calculating monthly salaries
- • processing hour data
- • calculating allowances and compensations
- • processing holiday pay
- • travel and expense reimbursements
- • preparing payslips
- • employer notifications
- • reporting payroll data
- • calculations related to ending an employment relationship
- • checking payroll materials
In your offer, it is worth stating how many employees the service covers, whether notifications are included in the price, which system is used, who is responsible for delivering working-time data, whether interpretation of collective agreements is included and whether exceptional situations are charged separately.
Financial statements and tax returns
A company may need a specialist to close the financial year and prepare filings for the authorities.
Tasks may include:
- • preparing financial statements
- • preparing the income statement and balance sheet
- • preparing notes
- • preparing the tax return
- • reviewing VAT returns
- • estimating advance taxes
- • clarifying the company’s tax matters
- • mapping missing materials
- • correcting financial statements
The service provider must clearly state whether the price is based on complete and up-to-date bookkeeping or whether the assignment also includes correcting the bookkeeping.
Financial reporting and business advisory
Statutory bookkeeping alone is not always enough to run a company. A client may need help understanding their financial situation.
Assignments may include:
- • cash flow forecast
- • budgeting
- • profitability calculation
- • cost analysis
- • pricing calculations
- • sales forecasts
- • reporting the company’s financial situation
- • monthly management reports
- • comparing investments
- • calculations related to company formation
In your offer, it is worth stating what source data is needed and in what form the client will receive the result.
Drafting and reviewing contracts
A client may need a lawyer or contract specialist to draft a new contract or review an existing one.
Assignments may include:
- • service agreement
- • assignment agreement
- • subcontracting agreement
- • non-disclosure agreement
- • cooperation agreement
- • lease agreement
- • sales agreement
- • shareholders’ agreement
- • employment contract
- • terms of use
- • privacy notice
- • complaint
- • assessment related to terminating a contract
In your offer, it is worth stating whether a new document will be drafted or an existing draft reviewed, how many comment or revision rounds are included in the price, in which language the contract will be prepared, whether a meeting or negotiation is included, whether negotiation with the counterparty is included and how quickly the work can be delivered.
Corporate and commercial law advice
Companies may need legal support at different stages of their business.
Tasks may include:
- • company formation
- • shareholders’ agreements
- • general meeting documents
- • board resolutions
- • preparing company acquisitions
- • assessing contractual risks
- • receivables management
- • liability and damages questions
- • subcontracting and cooperation relationships

State in your profile what kinds of companies and industries you have experience with.
Employment law advice
An employer or employee may need help assessing a situation related to an employment relationship.
Tasks may include:
- • reviewing an employment contract
- • interpreting terms of employment
- • advice related to a warning
- • ending an employment relationship
- • dismissal
- • probationary period terms
- • wage claims
- • working-time questions
- • holidays and absences
- • the employer’s internal guidelines
Employment law situations can be urgent and significant. The service provider should avoid firm promises about the outcome and tell the client what information is needed to assess the matter.
Legal assignments for private clients
A private individual may also need legal advice or help with documents.
Tasks may include:
- • reviewing a lease agreement
- • consumer dispute
- • complaint
- • cancelling a purchase
- • a debt or receivables matter
- • a document related to inheritance
- • a will
- • a prenuptial agreement
- • a power of attorney
- • a claim for damages
- • advice related to an authority decision
Not all legal matters are suitable for a general freelancer. The service provider should accept only tasks for which they have sufficient legal expertise and any required licence.
