The main tasks of the Embassy of Finland in Luxembourg are promoting the political and economic relations between two countries, presenting Finnish culture, various PR activities, observing and following Luxembourg's EU policy making and presenting Finland's positions, also passport and consular affairs.

The Embassy provides these consular services:

• Issuing visas, residence permits.

If Finnish passport is lost, stolen or damaged while abroad, an emergency passport to return home or to continue travel may be issued. An emergency passport is issued for the duration of the travel, but for no longer than 12 months. The loss or theft of the passport must be reported to the local police and the notification must be presented at the mission when applying for a replacement passport.

The processing of an ordinary passport normally takes from one to three weeks, of which preparation of the passport takes 4 to 6 days plus the time for delivery. The fee in the local currency charged by Finnish missions abroad corresponds to its value in euro. It should also be noted that if the passport cannot be granted or if it is not collected, the application processing fee remains non-refundable.

Citizens of Luxembourg, alike other EU-citizens, do not need visa for traveling to Finland.

Persons who have been admitted residence visa in one of the Schengen countries can freely travel within the Schengen area during a maximum of three months, if they comply with the general requirements for immigration.

Nationals of other Nordic countries (Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland) can enter Finland without restrictions and stay in the country without a residence permit.
