Is your home country represented in Finland? And if it is not, do you find this is a problem?

We have just posted online a piece about the importance of diplomatic representation in your host country while living abroad. Do let us know whether you think it is absolutely essential and share your experience about diplomacy in Finland.

Have a great week,

We have an honorary consul here while the closest embassy is in Stockholm. Personally I've not had any difficulties because of this. The consul signs off on any documents that need to be sent to Sweden and the embassy in Stockholm always send everything direct to home addresses.
