It is easier for the EU-citizens to come to work in Finland, because of the EU labor legislation. If you move to Finland from outside EU, you need a visa and a work permission to get employed here. Often the company you work for takes care of these. But sometimes you need to take into action yourself.

Typical situations, where you need to know what to do are:

• If you wish to change your status from a student to an employee
• When changing your job
• If you separate/divorce from your spouse, and your permission to stay and work in Finland was issued on him/her

Attending this webinar will give you useful insight on what to do.
