Isole Åland: cosa sapere prima di partire
L’essenziale
- Finnish entry rules apply; check Russian-nationality restrictions and your ferry operator’s document rules.
- Carry cash before travelling to smaller islands: ATMs are concentrated in a few centres.
Ingresso e visti
Åland is part of Finland; Finnish Schengen entry requirements apply. A ferry booking does not replace a passport or visa. Visa-exempt British visitors share the Schengen 90/180 allowance. Finland restricts non-essential travel by Russian citizens; verify exemptions before booking. Åland is outside the EU VAT area.
Validità del passaporto: Non-EU short-stay visitors: issued within the previous 10 years and valid at least 3 months after planned Schengen departure.
Alla frontiera possono chiedere
- Carry evidence of accommodation, onward travel and funds; allow time for external border checks.
