Applying for a Resident Permits

Hi guys,

I am from Vietnam and currently working for a company here. I have been searching for businesses in Finland recently and I have found some very interesting companies for sale.

I would like to buy them. My question is what type of immigration application should I apply?

From the website https://migri.fi, I can see that I am a private trader and I have to apply for an entrepreneur visa. Am I right?

There is also a requirement on minimum salary, I planned to quit my job for some preparations before buying a business. Does this violate the salary requirement?

And is there anything else that I would have to notice? Please give me some advices if you can!!

Thank you very much!!

The processing time for the Entrepreneur and employed person is unbelievably long!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I submitted the application papers in February 2018. Already 1 year passed, it's still "Waiting for processing".

How about your cases?

Hey,

Sorry for late replying! Currently i am researching the application processes. Not yet apply.
Are you from a country outside EU? Maybe that’s why it takes too long for processing...

EU citizens don't need residence permits in Finland...
