Health Regulations
Before leaving on a journey, travellers should find out about sickness insurance authorities in their own country and whether that country has concluded a social security agreement with Finland that covers health care during a temporary stay and, if so, what the procedure is for obtaining compensation.
If the traveller comes from a country with which Finland has a bilateral or multilateral agreement providing for urgent medical care during a temporary stay and can prove entitlement to treatment as required, he will be liable for the same charges as persons resident in Finland. The relevant countries (on June 1, 2003) are Australia, Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal, Scandinavia, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Estonia and Latvia.
Vaccination certificate requirements: No vaccination requirements for any international traveller.
