I do not live in Finland
I live in Estonia
I visit Finland once a month, but I need a Finnish bank account
Is it possible to get a Finnish bank account or no?
And in which bank is it possible?
Banks do not have to give you a bank account but they can if they so choose. The situations vary based on individual circumstances. Why do you need it?

To get the authentication you will need personal identity number and to be registered as living in Finland. Also some banks don't give this authentication rights only after few months you have received regular income into your account.

The law has changed. Online authentication is nowadays part of basic banking services. Every resident is entitled to basic banking services.

because on huuto.net some sellers sell only to authenticated huuto.net users
and you can only authenticate with Finnish bank account
I only need it for this
I can close bank account after I have authenticated my huuto.net user
Your best bet would be Nordea prepaid authentication. You would still need to have a reason for a personal identity code from Maistraatti though.
