[toonsi]

Hi i'm a Tunisian guy 23 years old !! i have license in civil engineering ( studied 3 years in university)
well i met a Finnish girl and we fell in love she came twice to Tunisia and she will come next time to spend may be 2 month and half!!!
but really we want to live together as soon as possible !! but she still have to continue studying there and different culture here that will be impossible for her to come and live here !!
that's why we are looking for a way for me to go there and live in Finland with her !!! and everyone says that marriage is the best and the easiest way!!! but we don't know how ??
should we get married next time when she come ? and how much time it take to get the visa?
i really need some advice !!
kiitos for everyone )))

Apparently you are wearing those pink sunglasses which make everything look rosy, perhaps your girlfriend gave them to you?
What the aim of the girlfriend is, that she can continue her studies, going on with her life in Finland, and to export a decoration for her sofa (thats what they are called here). Whilst you will be in a strange country, do you speak Finnish by the way (if not prepare for years of studying), new culture, new climate, and totally dependant on her - while rushing from offices to apply for benefits etc.

Only your country can reply to you about the visa permit . It is a long process. If you are not married when arriving in Finland, you are merely a tourist who can stay for 90 days, not more, then back home,,, bye bye love. For you visa, you need an invitation from someone who can undertake to support you on your visit.
If you are married, you can apply for a visa on family member grounds, and your spouse must travel with you here. Since she is not prepared to come andl live with you in Tunisia, to have a taste of your culture, the alternatives are not many.
You will go through many interviews, why you want to get married, very personal questions, before you get your visa, and in the future, your residence permit.

Visa is for visiting, residence permit is for residing.

Until you speak Finnish fluently (it usually takes a few years), you might not be able to find any job in Finland.

and everyone says that marriage is the best and the easiest way!!! but we don't know how ??
should we get married next time when she come ?

Yes, that is an option.

and how much time it take to get the visa?

It may take 2 months or it may take over half a year until you get a decision when you apply for a Residence Permit.

Yes, focus on the bureaucratic stuff and ignore the real life issues.
What Tizlit describes happens so often that they have a name for it; "summer man".
When you browse this forum you'll find many examples of imported and soon dumped men.

If he thinks it's a great idea, he can try, I know atleast 1 tunesian who's very happily married here in savonlinna.

One thing, he said to me.
Immediately get it into your head that this is a different culture to tunesia, especially where it comes to male/female relations.
If you don't, you'll likely be sitting in the doghouse a whole lot

Best of luck!
