The process begins with the collection of necessarydocuments. To get a Finnish visa, you need a passport, of course, it must be valid. In doing so, pay special attention to the period of its validity. It is valid for 3 more months, since the moment of finalizing the last trip. If you have a valid second passport, it will also be needed.
Attach also old passports with the expired termactions, especially if they contain any kind of visa. For persons who are under 18 years of age, it is necessary to produce a birth certificate (original). If a child is sent to Finland with only one parent or a third person, then permission must be granted to leave the country from the second parent (both).
It must certainly be certified by a notary.If the receipt of such permission is impossible due to the death of the parent, you will have to produce documents confirming this fact. Documents for a Finnish visa for a non-working citizen should contain any statements from accounts in banks or credit cards, to confirm its solvency.
