Residence Permit

Whether you’re seeking a residence permit for yourself or your family, Passport Pathway ensures you meet Finland’s requirements. A valid passport, travel documents, and a bank statement verifying financial stability are essential for the Finland resident visa program.

If you’re from Iceland, Norway, Denmark, or Sweden, you can enter and exit Finland for business, work, study, and other purposes without a visa for up to 90 days. For stays longer than 90 days, you must register your purpose and name at the nearest police department in Finland.

The Finland Residence Permit offers numerous benefits, including the right to purchase property, start a business, and access social security and healthcare.

Finland Work Permit

Obtaining a Finland work permit is directly tied to having a residence permit. Before applying for a work permit, you must first register for a residence permit as a foreign national. Proof of income or employment is also required for the work permit application.
