How to Enter Finland
Do I need a passport or visa to enter?
Visit the Embassy of Finland website for the most current visa information. The U.S. Embassy in Helsinki is not able to assist private U.S. citizens in obtaining necessary visas for neighboring countries, including Russia and other countries of the former Soviet Union.Finland is a party to the Schengen agreement. As such, U.S. citizens may enter Finland for up to 90 days for tourist or business purposes without a visa. Your passport should be valid for at least three months beyond the period of stay. You need sufficient funds and a return airline ticket.
Special Travel Circumstances in Finland
Commercial and financial transactions in Finland are increasingly automated and on-line. Cash is almost always acceptable (the currency is the euro), but most major credit cards are widely accepted. Automatic Teller Machines (ATMs) are very common and many U.S.-issued bankcards are compatible with them. We are not aware of any special currency or customs circumstances for this country.
