Finland ID Card Photo

In Finland, official proof of identity includes a valid passport, national ID card, or Citizen Certificate issued by the Digital and Population Data Services Agency. While a driving licence is not a legally recognized identity document, it may occasionally suffice for age verification or informal purposes. For official transactions, always use government-issued photo identification.

The standard processing time for a Finnish ID card is approximately 8 working days. Once ready, your ID card will be available for pickup at your selected collection point. To collect it, bring the provided tracking number and a valid government-issued identification document (e.g., passport or driver’s license). If you cannot collect it personally, an authorized representative may do so by presenting the tracking number, their own valid ID, and a signed power of attorney document.
