Finland Updates Temporary Protection Rule

Key Point  

  • Finland announced it will deny temporary protection to applicants who already hold such permits in another EU member state

Temporary Protection in Finland  

Finland has confirmed that individuals who have already received temporary protection in another European Union (EU) country are not eligible to apply for the same status in Finland. The government emphasized that this change aligns with EU rules, prevents duplicate residence permits, and clarifies responsibilities among member states. Applicants must rely on the protection status granted in the first EU country of residence.
