Finnish residence permit for EU residents

Post by Mahune » Thu May 17, 2018 12:50 pm

Hi, guyz:)

Didnt find any information about it on web. I have long term residence permit in Croatia (EU country), but im not a citizen of EU. Planning to move to Finland to work. And have a question. Do I have to submit my rp application in finnish ambassy in Zagreb or can submit application in Finland?
According to lady from ambassy, I do have same rights as EU citizens (I can live in Finland up to 90 days without being registered at authorities). That means I can enter Finland and look for job there. And after finding a job (getting job contract) I have to go to different services to register myself (get id-number, tax-card, etc...).

Is it true information?

Thank you in advance.

Sounds easy, doesn't it? Reasons for hiccup might be: getting job, starting said job as you don't have Finnish RP and thus can't work before you get one.

Deleted since I misread the background information.
