Immigration matters
The Ministry of the Interior is responsible for refugee policies, general steering and legislative work. It also makes decisions on the founding and abolishing of individual reception centres. Ministry of Employment and the Economy is responsible for immigration matters such as integration of immigrants.
The Finnish Immigration Service Migri acts as an overseeing and steering authority in matters of the reception centres, the detention centre and the implementation of the system to help victims of human trafficking.
When someone moves abroad from Finland or moves to the country from abroad, Kela decides whether the migrant is covered under the Finnish social welfare system.
