My grandmother was from Finland and I have many cousins there. Thinking to change from US to Finnish citizenship soon

[@AleksiHimself]

I'm not sure if you can change citizenships just like that but you can get a residence permit based on remigration. Finland allows dual citizenships too.

[@dixter20]

Haha yes me too. American with Finnish relatives and looking to get out of USA! If you have parents or grandparents who were born in Finland that is one way to be eligible for permanent residency status.

[@AntoinMhicArtain]

You don't need to "change citizenship", you can be both an American Citizen and a Finnish Citizen. I'm both a British Citizen and an Irish Citizen, I have both passports. I want to move to Finland, it's so beautiful. Luckily I have an EU passport so I won't need to apply for a visa or residency permit.

[@jasontulla6117]

As long as a parent or grandparent was a citizen of finland. And then you have to live there for 4 years.

[@Artmiri]

This one is the rarest and possibly not many people know about it. It is not written anywhere except in the application itself. You can get exempted from language requirement if your JOB requires Finnish citizenship, and there is no way around it. Basically if your employer proves that in order for you to perform your work duties, the citizenship is a must! Happens in very rare and distinct jobs but it is an option to select in the application and then ou can attach the letter of explanation.

[@burakoz50]

Swedish language is the easier way to get citizenship but I think Finnish is more important to live in Finland socioculturally for sure. Not hard as Chinese as a native Turkish speaker.

[@AleksiHimself]

Finnish won't be that hard with the right strategy & attitude.

Hi and welcome to the Finntastic Squad! :)

[@maksymfrantsuzov1338]

There's a problem. I'm not allowed to simply come and live in Finland 4-5 years without a residence permit. It's required if I'm gonna stay there longer than 90 days. In order to get it I need to have one of these solid reasons for residence: 1) Working 2) Studies 3) Family ties 4) Re-immigration 5) Finnish heritage 6) International protection. Otherwise they will just kick my ass out of your country. None of the options fit in my case. I've got an online business and don't do jobs. Graduating from a university in Finland doesn't help to get its citizenship. I've got no family ties there, no Finnish heritage (I don't know if I do though) and I'm not a refugee. If I say: ''well, I wanna stay in Finland just because I love it'', it probably won't work. Being lucky enough to get married there in 3 months doesn't seem realistic. Any ideas?

[@AleksiHimself]

A possible way would be to study here first and while being here, move your business here by founding a company.

Finland allows dual citizenship. I coached an American moving to Finald who was in a similar situation.

Great video Aleksi. Easy to understand yet thorough. Just one question.

Can a non Finn serve in the Finnish Defense Force and maybe use that to add to their citizenship application?

Non-EU guide for Finnish citizenship 1) Graduate from a Finnish university or univ. of applied sciences to apply for jobs as part of the local workforce 2) Find a job in Finland and stick to it 3) Learn Finnish for a couple of years and pass the YKI test 4) Get married or establish a serious, ongoing, long-term (2 years minimum) registered romantic relationship with a Finnish citizen to establish a permanent family connection 5) After 5 years of continous and law-abiding residence on the basis of employment and/or family ties, and with proof of your Finnish skills, apply for Finnish citizenship Step 4 is optional, but recommended, as long as the relationship is happy and genuine. The authorities will find out if a relationship is fake. Simply getting married to a Finnish citizen does not entitle one to Finnish citizenship either, as each applicant is reviewed individually.

Hello, the website is down for the Finnish language.

[@88marome]

My mom is Finnish, my dad is Swedish and I'm born in Sweden. I read that I had to visit Finland after my 18 birthday to be a Finnish citizen (I might be wrong) but I haven't done that. I've only been to Finland (on short holidays) when I was around 4 years old. Somehow I've been getting the envelopes for both the Finnish and Swedish EU vote. Could I be a Finnish citizen without knowing it? And how can I vote from 2 countries in the same election? It sounds wrong and I did not take advantage of it, I only voted using the Swedish one.

[@HakureiMikko]

If you received documents to vote for Finland i the EU elections I'm pretty certain that you are a citizen. You would have been granted citizenship upon birth through your mother's citizenship. Also, it seems you have not lost your Finnish citizenship at the age of 22 (by virtue of being a resident of a nordic country i.e. Sweden for at least seven years prior to turning 22). I suggest you contact the embassy for confirmation. I was thinking you would have had some confirmation by being called for military duty however, if I recall correctly those who carry dual citizenship are called in their country of residence. So, in the case of Sweden, not very likely. As a side note, back before 2003, those who acquired a foreign citizenship automatically lost the Finnish one. I just reclaimed mine recently. Fortunately, as a former citizen (formerly former?) I was able to do so by declaration. Cheers!
