Starting in 2025, Finland is introducing stricter employer notification requirements for companies hiring non-EU/EEA/Swiss nationals. These changes, enforced by the Finnish Immigration Service (Migri), replace previous guidelines with legally binding obligations. Under the new rules, employers must declare when they hire or dismiss non-EU employees within specified periods; violations could trigger sanctions.

As of June 11, 2025, the Finnish Immigration Service (Migri) has introduced significant changes to the regulations governing work-based residence permits, affecting both employers and foreign employees.
