"Residence permit application for an entrepreneur

Apply with this application for a residence permit if you intend to come to Finland to become an entrepreneur. Before a permit can be issued, entrepreneurs usually need to enter their business in the Trade Register maintained by the Finnish Patent and Registration Office. Start-up entrepreneurs must get a positive statement from Business Finland before they apply for a residence permit. A start-up entrepreneur cannot get a residence permit without a positive statement from Business Finland.
