Decisions are made by Finnish authorities.
Residence-permit decisions are made by the Finnish Immigration Service (Migri) and other authorities. Selvia is an independent private business — not an authority and not affiliated with one — and cannot influence decisions or processing times.
Starting a business as part of your move?
Business Services and Accounting & Tax can help with the business side of your move — formation, registrations and bookkeeping — alongside the practical immigration support above.
