Kivra account for WMSE
Closed, DeclinedPublic

Description

Kivra is a Swedish online service for automatically getting a digital alternative to paper mail from the connected organisations, mainly Swedish authorities. This might be beneficial both to reduce handling of paper e-mail and from an environmental point of view.

This task (or subtasks) focuses on:

  • Investigating if there are any reasons to NOT get a free Buisness Mailbox account for WMSE.
  • If deemed setting up a Kivra account and updating any internal documentation which this affects.
  • Investigate and, if deemed suitable, activate the Fortnox-plugin for Kivra.

Not included are:

  • Using Kivra for digital signatures (we already decided to go with Scrive)
  • Activating Scanning service

 to route all physical letters through Kivra

Event Timeline

Norrsken hinted that they are not to keen on major amounts of post, so anything we do to reduce the amount of physical letters would likely be appreciated.

Kivra lists the types of companies (företagsform) that can get a Business Mailbox. Ideel förening is not listed (but e.g. Ekonomisk förening is), so I've written to them to check if that is a hard blocker.

Ok. So Kivra relies on using Bolagsverket to determine who is Firmatecknare. Since Ideell förening is not handled by them it becomes a hard blocker.

It is technically possible for us to register with Bolagsverket (since some of our activities are classified as Näringsverksamhet). It would effectively involve a setup fee (1500 kr) and a minor annual fee (800 kr) to update changes to the board.

Lokal_Profil moved this task from 📥 Backlog to ☑️ Done on the User-Lokal_Profil board.

Follow up reply from Kivra.

Essentially since Skatteverket doesn't allow one to tick the box "digital mailbox" as an Ideell förening Kivra doesn't support it. While I didn't get a direct reply as to whether it would be possible if we were registered with Bolagsverket the implication was that it would still be against their rules.

Last info Kivra got from Skatteverket was that it would be possible in the future.

I'm changing the status to declined and we can re-visit the issue in the future when we see an announcement about it.

Interesting. That's to bad! Thanks for following up.
