Income Requirements for Students

A residence permit can be granted for the entire duration of your studies, provided that you can support yourself financially while in Finland. For your initial residence permit application for studies, work cannot be used to secure your income.

Include proof of financial support for the first year of studies with your application.

To receive a residence permit, you must have sufficient funds to cover living expenses in Finland for the entire duration of the permit. You must have at least 560 euros per month available for accommodation, food, and other necessities.

For studies lasting one year or longer, you must have 6,720 euros in your bank account when applying. For studies taking less than one year, you must have 560 euros per month available.

If you have received a grant or scholarship towards living expenses in Finland, include proof of the grant or scholarship with your application. The awarded amount will count towards meeting the income requirement. For example: If coming to Finland for one year of study, and awarded a 2,000 euro grant for living costs in Finland, you must provide a bank statement confirming 4,720 euros in your account (6,720 euros – 2,000 euros = 4,720 euros).

Work related to your degree (practical training or diploma work) has no restrictions on hours worked. Additionally, paid employment is allowed up to a maximum of 30 hours per week. The weekly working hours may exceed 30 at times if it still averages no more than 30 hours per week by year-end.

Tuition Fees

Higher education institutions or universities typically require payment of tuition fees.

If you pay tuition fees before arriving in Finland,

attach documentation of paid fees to your residence permit application. Also, ensure you have adequate funds for living expenses in Finland.
