Moving to Finland: A Guide to Public Services

When you move to Finland, you will need to handle several administrative matters. These include, for example, registering with the Finnish Population Information System, registering with the Finnish Social Security, and enrolling in Finnish language courses.

Communicating with authorities, filling out forms, and understanding legal texts can seem challenging, especially if your English skills are limited or if you don’t have someone who can assist you. However, there is no need to worry, as we are here to help with all these matters.

Our services include, among other things, managing international registration, enrolling in Finnish social security, and applying for the Kela card. We also assist with finding and registering for Finnish language courses.

International Registration

When you move to Finland, you need to register with the Finnish Population Information System and obtain a Finnish personal identity number. If you wish to acquire a municipality of residence, you need to visit the Registration and Population Information Office.

We assist you with registration at the Registration and Population Information Office.

Finnish Social Security (KELA)

If you are moving permanently to Finland, you need to inform Kela of your relocation and apply for a Kela card so that you can access services such as healthcare. You may also be eligible for Kela benefits right from the start of your move.

We assist you with registering with Kela and obtaining your Kela card.

Finnish Language

Knowing Finnish is important for integrating into Finnish society and culture. You can study Finnish through language courses or integration training. Integration training includes learning the Finnish language as well as understanding Finnish society and professional life. This training is specifically designed for new immigrants.

We assist you in finding Finnish language courses and enrolling in them.
