The Suomi-piste service point offers a range of public authority services in the same location, and will soon also host the International House Helsinki services for newcomers relocating to Finland.

Suomi-piste provides in-person support for customers whose matters require a visit to an authority. International House Helsinki will share premises with Suomi-piste, as several government authorities will also relocate their services to the new service point in Helsinki.

At the current International House Helsinki service centre, multiple public authorities provide services related to the relocation process for internationals moving to Finland. The service ecosystem is coordinated by the City of Helsinki. Visitors can also receive general information and guidance from Helsinki-info at the service centre.

The new service centre opens on 1 June

Services at the current service centre in Sörnäinen will be available until 29 May at 12.00. The new service centre in Pasila will open on 1 June at 8.00, with most services available from 9.00 onwards. The new address of the service point is Ratapihantie 7.

At the new service point, customers can complete registrations and formalities with different public authorities and handle other matters related to the initial stage of moving to Finland:

  • Registration of the right of residence for EU citizens (Finnish Immigration Service, Migri)
  • Registration of personal data in the Finnish Population Information System, as well as applying for a Finnish personal identity code and municipality of residence (Digital and Population Data Services Agency, DVV)
  • Applying for a tax card (Finnish Tax Administration)

In addition, the following services are available at the service point:

  • Registering as a jobseeker (Employment Services)
  • General and immigration-related advice and guidance (Helsinki-info)
  • Applying for social security and related matters (Social Insurance Institution of Finland, Kela – handled remotely)

You are most welcome to visit the new service point!
