Now stricter: Finland has changed the requirements for obtaining a visa
Border crossing requirements are constantly changing, so it's essential to stay updated, especially if you're planning to travel abroad soon. This time, Finland is tightening its requirements. Since the beginning of the year, the daily financial requirement for travelers has increased from 30 to 50 euros, reflecting the rising cost of living.
This information was reported by Yle, citing the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The Ministry has raised the daily financial requirement for tourists from 30 to 50 euros.
Furthermore, Finland is starting to enforce the EU regulation that allows for the imposition of obligations regarding the financial support and accommodation of foreigners. In the future, when assessing visa applications, it may be considered whether a Finnish citizen or a resident with a residence permit in the country agrees to finance the trip of the visa applicant.
