You can register as a job seeker before unemployment or a layoff starts, but do it at the latest on your first day of unemployment, because you can only receive unemployment benefits from the day you register.
You can log in to Työmarkkinatori with online banking credentials, mobile certificate, or a smart ID card.

Register as a job seeker in the Työmarkkinatori Services portal; otherwise, fill out the pre-information form for registering as a job seeker and visit the Kuopio employment area's office.
