Do not hesitate to get tested for coronavirus after returning to Finland
Travelling abroad increases the risk of the virus spreading, which is why everyone should keep an eye on their own health and, if necessary, get tested for the coronavirus to minimise the risk of a further epidemic. If you have travelled or spent a longer period outside Finland and are returning to Finland, it is very important to keep an eye on your health.
