Vaccinations Finland

Planning a trip to Finland soon? Preparing well can help make your holiday enjoyable and safe. It is important to note that visiting Finland carries certain health risks, so vaccinations are recommended and may even be mandatory. The vaccinations you will need depend on factors such as the regions you will be visiting and the length of your stay. Simply make an appointment with us to get personalised travel advice.

Finland is a country in Northern Europe and shares borders with Russia, Norway, and Sweden. Major cities include the capital, Helsinki, and Tampere. Finland is often referred to as "the land of a thousand lakes," although in reality, it has around 168,000 lakes. The country has a diverse climate, with short, warm summers and long, cold winters. Rain, hail, and snow can occur in every month of the year. In the south, summers are warmer than one might expect for such a high latitude. Temperatures can rise above 30 degrees Celsius in the summer.
