Внимательно прочитал последние (от 09.05.22) инструкции по въезду в Финляндию на сайте их погранслужбы (
https://raja.fi/en/guidelines-for-borde ... g-pandemic). Там четко написано, что въезжать в Финляндию из третьих стран (читай, не из ЕСа с Шенгеном, и не из списка "зеленых" стран) можно только по строго определенному списку причин. Причем, это относится не только к русским, но и к американцам, британцам, туркам, и.т.д. То есть, в данном случае, "правильная" вакцина является необходимым, но не достаточным условием. Вот детали:
3. Entry into Finland from other countries (external border traffic)
What countries and regions does this apply to?
This section applies to entry in Finland from all countries not previously listed above, such as Russia, the United Kingdom, the United States and Turkey.
What are the requirements for entry?
Entry into Finland is allowed for passengers arriving from these countries if they meet the general entry requirements and the requirements listed below.
Person may be granted entry into Finland from any country if they present
a certificate of a complete and valid vaccination seriesLink to an external website, Opens in a new tab. At least 7 days must have passed since the last vaccine dose has been received OR
a single certificate that the person has recovered from covid-19 virus and has gotten one dose of valid vaccineLink to an external website, Opens in a new tab. It is equated to a complete covid-19 vaccination series. OR
EU digital COVID certificateLink to an external website, Opens in a new tab that proves the person has recovered from covid-19 within 6 months.
All the above-mentioned requirements apply to persons born in 2006 or earlier.
The requirements above do not apply to Finnish citizens or permanent residents of Finland returning to Finland (e.g. persons who have registered the right of residence in Finland or with a residence permit granted by Finland). Neither does the requirement apply to those who enter the country for a purpose listed below. The essential reason for travelling is always evaluated case by case during border controls carried out by the Finnish Border Guard.
Essential reason to entry in Finland
work that is significant for the functioning of society or supply security, the implementation of which requires the work performance of a person or persons coming from another country and that the work cannot be delayed
health care and rescue service personnel (including first aid) and elderly care professionals during assignments as well as authoritative personnel performing essential work tasks
transport and logistics personnel during assignments
diplomats, staff of international organisations, military personnel and humanitarian aid workers in the exercise of their duties
persons travelling with a residence permit in Finland
state representatives participating in international negotiations and persons engaged in the work of international NGOs
persons in need of international protection or who are travelling for other humanitarian purposes
pressing family matters or other pressing personal reasons
other necessary and justified purposes (such as representatives of the foreign media; transit of scheduled air services at airports; a property, a residence or a secondary residence in Finland; the arrival of a family member of a Finnish citizen living abroad).
If you enter the country for an essential purpose, minors travelling in the same travel party with you can enter the country. In this case, the Communicable Diseases Act and decisions made by the health authorities, such as compulsory health examinations, apply to minors.
In addition to the aforementioned, third country nationals, for example Russian citizens, who have a residence permit or a D-visa issued by another Schengen state, can transit through Finland to the country issuing residence permit or D-visa. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, transit for a person travelling with D-visa is only allowed when returning to the country, that has issued the D-visa (a single trip).
For persons travelling with short-term visas (C-visa), it is not possible to transit through Finland to another country (for example to meet relatives).Соответственно, в Финляндию пускают только если есть "правильная" вакцина + essential reason из приведенного списка. Причем, в п.5 особо оговорено про транзит, что:
Transit of regular scheduled air services at an airport
Transit on regularly scheduled routes is permitted. During the transit journey, a person must remain in the transit area of the airport. Entry into the country for transit, or for example, for hotel accommodation that is not in the transit area, is allowed only for a grave reason. In this case, passengers entering the country will be bound by the obligations stated in the Communicable Diseases Act.То есть, если я правильно понимаю, с 09.05.22 транзит по Финляндии по маршруту "граница-по-земле-с-РФ - аэропорт" возможен только в случае какой-то экстраординарной ситуации (grave reasons). При этом, в теме "как сейчас улететь из России в США" полно историй, как людей пускали в Торфяновке/Бруснике по предъявлению паспорта США/Канады и авиабилета из Хельсинки в США/Канаду. Иногда даже без "правильной" вакцины. И, опять же, в шапке этой темы также написано, что подобный транзит возможен (правда, непонятно, откуда эта информация).
Вопрос: это ситуация изменилась кардинально с 09.05.22 или финские пограничники достаточно свободно относятся к своим же собственным въездным правилам?
