Do I need a visa to transfer in Finland?

Transfer in Finland to see if you need a visa.

Anyone who holds a joint ticket to a third country via Finland and stays at the airport for no more than 24 hours can be exempted from the visa, and a transit visa is required for more than 24 hours.

Finland joined the Schengen Agreement 5438+0 in March 2006. According to the agreement, you can get an entry visa at any diplomatic representative office of Schengen countries in China, and you can also travel to 25 other Schengen countries without a visa.

Therefore, if you need to apply for a Finnish visa transfer, you must apply for a Schengen visa.

Note: There is no visa-free agreement between China and Finland. Visa on arrival is not available at Finnish ports of entry.

Note: China citizens should choose the border inspection window for non-EU citizens. According to Finland's law on foreigners, border authorities can search and open all luggage, and even detain people suspected of illegal immigration or other problems.

Therefore, when entering the country, we must truthfully answer the questions of border officials about the purpose of coming to Finland, the number of days of stay, the reception unit in Finland and so on. Avoid making mistakes and don't fabricate information that is inconsistent with the application materials, otherwise you may be refused entry. Finnish law stipulates that border guards have the right to repatriate those who provide false information.
