The Finnish Border Guard is an internal security agency operating under the Ministry of the Interior. The aim of our activities is to maintain peaceful conditions in the border areas of our country. Our main tasks are to guard Finland's borders on land and at sea, carry out border checks on persons at land border crossing points, ports and airports, and perform search and rescue operations, particularly at sea. Because Finland is a member of the European Union and a Schengen country, our activities focus on the external border.
