proves that an EU citizen’s right of residence has been
entered into the Register of Aliens.
To register your residence, you need a registration form
(filled in at the police station), a certificate of enrolment

Erasmus grant), adequate health insurance and your
national proof of identity or passport. The registration fee

permit already before coming to Finland (please see the
chapter “Apply for Residence Permit”).

must register their residence after staying three months in
Finland. The local police handle the registration, except for
Nordic citizens who are registered at the Register Office
under an Inter-Nordic Migration Form. The registration
can also be submitted electronically through the Finnish
immigration e-service.

least one year.
We require that all official documents are notarised
originals or translations by authorised translators.”

lines 5, 6, 13, 20, 23, 24 and 30 run to Hervanta.
If you are planning to visit other cities in Finland, you
can find more information on your destination online. ­
City websites are usually in the format www.name of
the city.fi.
From the railway station in Tampere, you can take the bus
13, 20 or 23 to Hervanta. The bus stop is across the street
from the department store called Stockmann, which is
near the railway station.
Finland has an extensive rail and coach network. You can
reach all the large cities and many of the smaller towns
by train or at least by coach. You can buy tickets for longdistance trains and intercity coaches at a reduced price
by showing your Finnish student card. Remember to
keep your student card with you when you travel. You will
also need to show your student card to the conductor in
the train. Renting a car is easy but rather expensive.

you can take the bus No. 30 to Hervanta. Buses run
approximately every 15 minutes.
