Restrictions on entry at Finland’s external borders imposed due to the COVID-19 pandemic end on the 30th June 2022. As of the 1st July, third-country travellers (including the UK) arriving in Finland will no longer be required to hold vaccination or COVID-19 test certificates, and COVID-19 tests will not be carried out at border crossing points.
