RP after studies
Hi. Im about to complete my masters degree in Helsinki. So after obtaining my degree, if i can't find any job to apply for a RP, I can create any business (restaurant, coffee shop etc)? If yes, what kind of business and registration? Is it valid for a RP after graduation? Thanks

After graduation you can get a 1 year residence permit for jobseeking:Gomezlindax wrote: ↑Sun Dec 19, 2021 2:36 pmIm about to complete my masters degree in Helsinki.

This residence permit allows you to work or start a business.
The main requirement for a residence permit as entrepreneur is that your business generates sufficient profit to ensure your means of support.
Registration is mandatory in any case, what kind of business is your decision.
The typical business started by foreign entrepreneurs who graduated from a Finnish university without being fluent in Finnish is a one-person business delivering food for Wolt or Foodora.
