THL recommends that all who travel abroad should get full vaccine protection against coronavirus before travel

THL has updated its Travel and the coronavirus pandemic web page. Rapid changes in the COVID-19 epidemic situation are still possible. For this reason, THL recommends that all who travel abroad should be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 before travelling. 

All coronavirus vaccines in use in Finland give good protection against coronavirus disease, and excellent protection against its serious forms, while significantly reducing the number of infections and transmissions. The recommendation to be fully vaccinated against the coronavirus applies to all travellers who have the possibility to get a coronavirus vaccine in Finland.

The web page also has updated information on the EU COVID Certificate and the countries outside the EU where an EU COVID certificate is currently available. These countries currently include Iceland, Norway, and Sweden, among others.
