Appeal Options

If you believe that TAKS has made an incorrect decision in your case, you can appeal the decision. You do this to the Faroese Appeals Institution, which is an independent body under the Prime Minister’s Office.

Is it about the processing of personal data?

 If you believe that TAKS has processed your personal data incorrectly, and discussing it with us has not helped, you can appeal to the Data Protection Authority.

On the website Dátueftirlitið (Data Protection Authority), you can find more informations.

The appeal deadline is four weeks

 It is calculated from the day the letter with the decision you are appealing arrived.

The appeal must be in writing

Provide reasons for it and attach the decision you are appealing. Also, attach other relevant documents.

Send the appeal by email to fks@fks.fo or by regular mail to the Faroese Appeals Institution: Føroya Kærustovnur , Undir Hornabakka, Postboks 45, 110 Tórshavn.
