Like many of its Nordic neighbours, Finland is reopening its borders to overseas visitors, signaling a positive shift for the travel and tourism industry. While travellers still need to present a vaccination certificate, a recovery certificate, or a negative test result upon arrival, this reopening allows third-country nationals to explore Finland once again.
This news is a significant boost for the Finnish travel and tourism sector, which has faced challenges during the pandemic. Recently, the European Commission approved a €48.62 million Finnish aid measure to compensate Finnair for the damage suffered due to the pandemic, highlighting the industry’s importance to the country’s economy. Travel Support Europe continues to provide vital travel assistance in Finland, ensuring that visitors receive the help they need while exploring the country.
Finland’s irresistible appeal
As the borders reopen, Finland stands ready to welcome back tourists with its diverse and breathtaking attractions. Whether visitors are drawn to the splendor of Europe’s largest archipelago, the vibrant capital city of Helsinki, the enchanting northern lights, or the unique winter experiences such as igloo hotels and snow sports, Finland offers something for everyone. The reopening also paves the way for business travelers to return for meetings and events, further revitalizing the economy.
Comprehensive Travel Assistance in Finland
Throughout the pandemic and beyond, Travel Support has remained committed to providing both medical and vehicle-related assistance to travellers in Finland. Our extensive network of local partners ensures that we can deliver comprehensive services across the entire country, including those harder-to-reach locations in the far north. While it may take a bit longer to reach these remote areas, rest assured that help is always on the way.

In Finland, we can book medical appointments any day of the week, including weekends. If necessary, we also arrange ambulance and air ambulance transportation.
