Very good video with a lot of useful information in the case you move to Finland. We wish we had seen this video before coming to Finland. 😅 It would have saved us time and problems. Congratulations for your work!
My parents registered me in Finland when I was born. Even though I was born abroad. My mother is Finnish. Grandparents are Finnish born and lived in Finland. My mummu is a Swedish speaking Finn Johannson and my grandfather Karvonen. I think I will start the paperwork in the next few months.

Hello Canadain with Finnish Heritage.. My Grandfather On Dads side was from the Homeland. He was born 1895 Moved prior to 1920 to Alberta Worked in a Coal Mine in CANMORE. Then to a farm.. I want to find out more about Finland!! Tough Hockey Players there. Tks Calgary, Alberta
I am very interested in bringing my family to Finnland. Ive always been drawn to this part of the world:) I wonder if an online business counts? For example I run an pnline bathbomb business and make a steady income . from what I'm gathering would I be able to come there, find a place to live ....n then Go register? I'm most interested in the school system for my two children. I absolutely will not put my kids back in an American school.
Hello there...ma'am u r almost right I'm agree with you ....I'm a single mum for two kids n I wish move with my kids too...my kids hated the school hear...depressed....lord help us
I so PROUD to be a Canadian of Finnish decent!! Although I think the government of Canada should be sued for lying to my ancestors and telling them they and their descendants would have a BETTER life in Saskatchewan Canada than in Alaharma.
I've been super confused about which one to apply for. I think Come to Finland based on other grounds applies to me since my girlfriend is from Finland, we've been seeing each other for a while now, and we wanna get married. Thank you for the info!
Lol I watched the entire video, made a plan (I want to apply for a master's degree in Finland), almost clicked off a video when I thought it was over, only to see I don't need to do anything because I'm from the EU. Glad I didn't start planning further being seeing that.
Aleksi.... I wish there was a private way to ask this question. You have a wealth of knowledge and insight. You also address questions in a very straight up way. So, I am in the process of applying for a "returnee" type visa (my grandparent was Finnish by birth and migrated with his family as a child). With my "returnee" type visa, I will be accompanied by my wife and our 3 teenage children. I am former military with tertiary degree in psychology (10+ years experience). My wife is a Phd Psychologist (with 20+ years exprience). We have strong English language skills but NO knowledge of Finn language. Putting aside all else, do you believe our tertiary qualifications/experience will help us in any meaningful way?
Psychology is a field which is regulated in Finland and only licenced people can practice the profession. www.valvira.fi/web/en/healthcare/professional_practice_rights
I was watching this video rather anxiously, wondering which permit should I apply for... Up until the 10th minute when you said EU members don't even need that stuff xD Well, I'm packing my bags.
Hi, if you are an EU citizent (or British citizen up until 31/12/2020) I believe you do not need a residence permit but you need to submit an EU registration - kind of the same but much cheaper and a little easier I believe :)
Moi Aleksi! I have a question, I hope you can help me, my boyfriend is a Finnish citizen, and I live in Chile, we want to get married in Finland, after that apply to the residence permit, do I need to go to Finland with a tourist visa, get married right after and apply the residence permit? Can I get married with a tourist visa of 90 days? What if I still don't have the answer of the application when the tourist visa is expired? Would I need to leave Finland and wait for an answer in my country and then come back to Finland? I hope you can help me with my doubts. Thanks in advance.
Thank you for the video. I am currently studying in Languages and International Business and I am going to finish my Bachelor in a year. As a EU citizen, I plan to immigrate to a Scandinavian country along with my girlfriend. I plan to start applying for jobs around September of this year in order to have more time to find something. Do you think I could easily find a job in Finland with my degree ? If so, do you have any tips about where should I look first ?
As far as I know degrees and graduations are generally accepted within EU countries... but not everything gets accepted. It could be that your degree gets accepted only by half, which means you can do additional work to let it fully recognize later on. That is because countries have often their own terms and conditions when it comes to various degrees. So in this case, you need inform yourself and ask Finnish agencies. In case you are an EU citizen, then you shouldn't have much trouble or none. (: I know a hungarian teacher, who moved to Germany. Her degree was only recognized by half and had to do some extra work (to fulfill the terms and conditions) to get her title as teacher accepted.

If you have an EU passport you can move to Finland freely. Basically what you should is just to set up a business (proprietorship or limited liability company) and you will be taxed as an entrepreneur.
@@cruentorum9509 with EU citizenship you can travel in any EU country freely for 90 days. If you want to stay longer, you need to register your residency in that country but that's very easy n quick to do.

Hello!! I am living in Italy 🇮🇹 and I get married to and Italian citizen, and we have two children. The question am about to ask,I didn’t know if you can help me to explain it? I want to know if is possible for me to transfer in Finland with my family? And if is yes? What kind of document did I need to proved? Thanks.
If you have Italian Passport, you don't need a residence permit. You can move here freely. You just need to register your residency at the immigration office.
how much time it usually takes for decision? For Internship/training. I checked the processing time on migri.fi website and they said 1 month. I'm still waiting for it.
Hi, when you say "come to Finland with a family member", I assume you mean to get together with a family member already in Finland, or do you mean migrating with your family or a family member both coming from your native country? Thanks.
Sorry for bothering, ive watched many videos but the amount of information confuses me and give me headache. is there a simplified list somewhere of the steps i need to take to move to finland? basically what im intrested in is ive saved enough money to purchase a house there but i am living in the Netherlands and i have a ID (Not the passport).in what order do i have to prepare to come? 1. find work/ 2. register residency / 3. buy house/ 4. get Finnish ID/ 5. get Finnish bank account? i have many more questions this is how unclear it is to me
1. Apply for a right of residency registration on Enter Finland. As an EU citizen (if you're Dutch), you need only sufficient funds to support your life in Finland; you don't need a permit. 2. Book a meeting with Migri's service point. You get a Personal Identity Code during the visit. 3. Get a Finnish bank account. 4. Register residency with DVV 5. Buy a house. Getting a job is recommended tho.
@@AleksiHimself yea i will definitely get a job but is that recommended after buying a house or before? I dont want to spend too much savings on renting/hotels. Thanks for your quick reply though
Hi Aleksi. My non EU husband got his PR to work in Finland just a month ago and I am planning to get PR too. Should I get it based on the family ties? Even though he just got there for a month. Does immi need him to show atleast 6 months of payslip as a proof that he is capable to support me? Also, planning to study when I get there. Which one is better? Is it to apply based on family ties or as a student? Thanks!
Hi. I assume you mean RP = Residence Permit and not PR = Permanent Residence Permit? Yes, you husband needs to have enough income to provide for both of you. Family RP does not restrict working at all whereas student RP restricts working to 25 hours a week. migri.fi/en/moving-to-finland-to-be-with-a-family-member
@@AleksiHimself thank you - it’s not something I can find on the website. I am the granddaughter of a Finn and looking to leave the UK and move to Finland but couldn’t see that option. I’ll keep looking thought. i appreciate you taking the time to reply!
I have a Swedish citizenship but I am half Swedish and half Finnish. I have a job lined up, so residence permit and so on I probably can fix. Family has a summer house I could move to at first. But how would I become a Finnish citizen for real? I’m so tired of Sweden, the pandemic was when I seriously began consider this. Very thankful for serious replies!
Would it count as remigration for me? My mother is Finnish but born in Sweden, but her parents were born in Finland. My grandfather fought in the winter war during ww2 btw (my hero!)
@@e30clew You don't need a residence permit because Sweden is a EU country. I think you just need to move to Finland, life here is long enough prove your Finnish or Swedish skills and the apply.

m from india and live in hungary on work permit. i have hungary residency card . i have schengen visa. and how can i get Finland residency card. .... please reply sir
Great information , please how about people who has permanent residency in another EU country ? If the come to Finland for more than 90 days ? What they should do ?
Pls respond: If i have a Specialist Resident permit for an year sponsored by my current employer but they are delaying to send me to Onsite. Can I search for another job there and if i get the job. can i come and work over there?
Hi Alex, In a few years I will retire and wish to come to Finland. From the official information I see, coming to Finland while retired is *not* one of the options. You have to either have commitsments (family in Finland, or a job, or something like that), or you are an expat (whatever that means). So the question is: if you have no previous ties to Finland, but you do have enough income, will Finland grant you a residence permit? P.S. I live in EU.
@@AleksiHimself I know I can move there, but ..... can I get a long-term residence permit? If I cannot, then probably many facilities are not open to me. Do you know?
Love your videos. I have a Finnish spouse and thinking about spending 3 months per year in Finland. Is it required and how complicated is the process, to get a resident visa?
Ok but if you were to get your residence permit where do you have to go specifically in order for you to get it? Do you have to go to a Police Station or the City Hall to give one of those 6 ways and get your residence permit? If it's not a police station or the City Hall then where?
What if I want to Live in Finland but I still want to work with my company located in the United States, and they let you work remotely? Can I still a Residency permit?
Kiitos, Aleksi! Excellent information! I keep telling my aunt to apply, but it’s hard to find grandparents birth certificates. Would church records work?
Like I said I'm no immigration specialist, but my guess is that church records would only prove your relationship and not the fact that your grandparents were born Finnish. You can read more here: migri.fi/en/descendant-of-a-finnish-citizen
Thanks for this video Aleksi. As you have said, I know you are not an expert, but do you know if I would qualify for a residency permit if I am seriously dating a Finnish girl and we have intentions to get married. We will soon be living together hopefully (as soon as I am able to sell my house etc in the U.S.), but we are not yet engaged. Money is not an issue, so I could clearly show I have enough money to support myself, prior to finding work. Any thoughts are appreciated.
I can't really say much cos I'm not the one making the decisions. You can find more about this type of RP on migri.fi/en/coming-to-finland-on-other-grounds
You can't go from a tourist visa straight to a residence permit. You could still find a job, but you would still have to go back home, apply for the work residence permit, and wait for it to be approved before you can return to work.
Dear brother, How can get Finnish A resident permit card and what are the requirements of that. I am looking for an answer as currently a university student in Finland.

Hi. I'm 22 and I'm the child of an EU citizen who is currently residing in Finland but I'm not EU citizen myself. I have the residence card of a family member of a Union Citizen which defines that I'm the dependent children. So Will I be able to get the family residence card in Finland?

Sorry for bothering, ive watched many videos but the amount of information confuses me and give me headache. is there a simplified list somewhere of the steps i need to take to move to finland? basically what im intrested in is ive saved enough money to purchase a house there but i am living in the Netherlands and i have a ID (Not the passport).in what order do i have to prepare to come? 1. find work/ 2. register residency / 3. buy house/ 4. get Finnish ID/ 5. get Finnish bank account? i have many more questions this is how unclear it is to me
1. Apply for a right of residency registration on Enter Finland. As an EU citizen (if you're Dutch), you need only sufficient funds to support your life in Finland; you don't need a permit.
2. Book a meeting with Migri's service point. You get a Personal Identity Code during the visit.
3. Get a Finnish bank account.
4. Register residency with DVV
5. Buy a house.
Getting a job is recommended tho.
@@AleksiHimself yea i will definitely get a job but is that recommended after buying a house or before? I dont want to spend too much savings on renting/hotels.
Thanks for your quick reply though
@@damien523 depends on how much money you have. Finland is not a cheap country so might be better to get a job first.
Hi Aleksi. My non EU husband got his PR to work in Finland just a month ago and I am planning to get PR too. Should I get it based on the family ties? Even though he just got there for a month. Does immi need him to show atleast 6 months of payslip as a proof that he is capable to support me? Also, planning to study when I get there. Which one is better? Is it to apply based on family ties or as a student? Thanks!
Hi. I assume you mean RP = Residence Permit and not PR = Permanent Residence Permit?
Yes, you husband needs to have enough income to provide for both of you. Family RP does not restrict working at all whereas student RP restricts working to 25 hours a week.

Ah... its a bit easier to move to finland 🤔 than to sweden
Well but you're from EU right? You won't be having any problems.
"Do you want to move to Finland?".
No, but I would like to go there on holiday.
Sounds like a plan!
@4:54 haha my favorite part of the video
Hi Aleksi, do you know have they stopped the connection to Finland reason? I am trying to look into applying for my first residency permit
I don't think they have.
@@AleksiHimself thank you - it’s not something I can find on the website. I am the granddaughter of a Finn and looking to leave the UK and move to Finland but couldn’t see that option. I’ll keep looking thought. i appreciate you taking the time to reply!
@@Pigletish check this migri.fi/en/remigration
I have a Swedish citizenship but I am half Swedish and half Finnish. I have a job lined up, so residence permit and so on I probably can fix. Family has a summer house I could move to at first. But how would I become a Finnish citizen for real?
I’m so tired of Sweden, the pandemic was when I seriously began consider this.
Very thankful for serious replies!
Would it count as remigration for me? My mother is Finnish but born in Sweden, but her parents were born in Finland. My grandfather fought in the winter war during ww2 btw (my hero!)
@@e30clew You don't need a residence permit because Sweden is a EU country.
I think you just need to move to Finland, life here is long enough prove your Finnish or Swedish skills and the apply.

Great information , please how about people who has permanent residency in another EU country ? If the come to Finland for more than 90 days ? What they should do ?
I think Migri has info about this.
Pls respond: If i have a Specialist Resident permit for an year sponsored by my current employer but they are delaying to send me to Onsite. Can I search for another job there and if i get the job. can i come and work over there?
Thanks bro
Thanks for the comment ACE HOOD Jnr!
Hi Alex, In a few years I will retire and wish to come to Finland. From the official information I see, coming to Finland while retired is *not* one of the options. You have to either have commitsments (family in Finland, or a job, or something like that), or you are an expat (whatever that means). So the question is: if you have no previous ties to Finland, but you do have enough income, will Finland grant you a residence permit? P.S. I live in EU.
If you have a EU passport, you don't really need a reason as long as you can financially support yourself. That's the point of free movement in EU.
@@AleksiHimself I know I can move there, but ..... can I get a long-term residence permit? If I cannot, then probably many facilities are not open to me. Do you know?
Love your videos. I have a Finnish spouse and thinking about spending 3 months per year in Finland. Is it required and how complicated is the process, to get a resident visa?
Unfortunately I don't know.
@@AleksiHimself no worries...I plan to contact the Finnish embassy in Washigton DC to find out. Thanks
Moi!! what about the "Self Employe" visa, can you give us insides on this one? Kiitos!
That is exactly what I will do with moving my Software Company to Finland! Greetings from Costa Rica!
I might do a separate video on that. Basically it's under the "working" permit.
@@xacompany Soy de Costa Rica, Ing. en Calidad, Junior en Python... pongamonos en contacto ;)!

Ok but if you were to get your residence permit where do you have to go specifically in order for you to get it? Do you have to go to a Police Station or the City Hall to give one of those 6 ways and get your residence permit? If it's not a police station or the City Hall then where?

@@AleksiHimself What are the other options than the link?
@@shahinbaghdasarian7456 what do you mean by other options? That is the official information from Migri. They will mail you the card.
What if I want to Live in Finland but I still want to work with my company located in the United States, and they let you work remotely? Can I still a Residency permit?
I think it's possible.
Kiitos, Aleksi! Excellent information! I keep telling my aunt to apply, but it’s hard to find grandparents birth certificates. Would church records work?
Like I said I'm no immigration specialist, but my guess is that church records would only prove your relationship and not the fact that your grandparents were born Finnish.
You can read more here: migri.fi/en/descendant-of-a-finnish-citizen
My sister already tried this church records stuff.... it is easier to look for other alternatives, believe me.
Aleksi Himself - Videos about Finland Kiitos. I will have to find out how to get their birth certificate. Maybe my cousin in Alajärvi would know.
I really like ur videos it’s really helpful.i wish I can have also resident visa there🥰
Best of luck!
Aleksi Himself - Videos about Finland thanks😘godbless
The person you are dating can be a sponsor if you live together, right?
What's the time period for spouse visa (paper based application)
Hi Aleksi, how can you get a license to practice as a nurse in Finland? ;)
First result from Google: www.nurses.fi/nursing_and_nurse_education_in_f/working-as-a-nurse-in-finland/
Thanks for this video Aleksi. As you have said, I know you are not an expert, but do you know if I would qualify for a residency permit if I am seriously dating a Finnish girl and we have intentions to get married. We will soon be living together hopefully (as soon as I am able to sell my house etc in the U.S.), but we are not yet engaged. Money is not an issue, so I could clearly show I have enough money to support myself, prior to finding work. Any thoughts are appreciated.
I can't really say much cos I'm not the one making the decisions. You can find more about this type of RP on migri.fi/en/coming-to-finland-on-other-grounds
So I can come there with a Visa, and if I wanna stay there I should find a job before 90 days?
Or you can find the job abroad.
You can't go from a tourist visa straight to a residence permit. You could still find a job, but you would still have to go back home, apply for the work residence permit, and wait for it to be approved before you can return to work.
@@jessicawright6093 please give me you contact number. I want something know.
Please do video how to making invitation letter for Finland
The info should be on migri.fi
"Enough Money" but what is enough money ?
Case by case.
Depends on the RP.
Can My sister sponser me who has a finnish citizenship
An how much amount you need to have to support yourself before your residence permit ready?
I don't know.
Also, the link for the Facebook group does not work
Dear brother, How can get Finnish A resident permit card and what are the requirements of that. I am looking for an answer as currently a university student in Finland.
The links aren’t working for me.
Terve Aleksi! If I have a passport from a nation which is part of the Schengen Area, do I still need a residence permit?
What country is that? I believe most of the Schengen countries belong to EU so I don't think you need.
@@AleksiHimself Poland
Yes each country has conditions
What if you win the lottery and don't have a job or study there, but you'd be bringing millions of $$ in? Luckily my dna test says 1% Finnish. I just need to win the lotto.
Hi.
I'm 22 and I'm the child of an EU citizen who is currently residing in Finland but I'm not EU citizen myself. I have the residence card of a family member of a Union Citizen which defines that I'm the dependent children. So

Hi Aleksi, thanks for your videos, as I am so interested to move to Finland, I got a lot of information about the life there, but I have a question, do you know as a foreigner, if I want to be a kindergarden teacher in Finland, is that very difficult ?
Might be, I don't know about that unfortunately.
@@AleksiHimself thanks for all your videos
