Travel Visa Finland

My wife and I will be traveling to Levi, Finland in mid-March. Do we need a VISA or any other documents beyond our passports?

Since Finnish Lapland is not covered in Rick's book, we are open to suggestions and advice for this trip. Our main goal is to see the Aurora. We are staying 8 nights in a glass roofed "igloo". we are going to add some other fun activities like Reindeer and dog sleighs. We will mix in a few days of alpine skiing as well. Thanks for any advice that you can give us.

Hi Cory,

When I visited Helsinki, Finland in May 2022 I only needed to provide my passport and a COVID card. Assuming you are US citizens with US passports. Once I landed in Helsinki the border guard only asked for my passport. He asked me if I was vaccinated and I said yes and went to get my card and he stated "that's fine I trust you".

I had Reindeer while on my trip. I tasted like a very very lean skirt steak.

How are we supposed to be able to answer that question if you won't tell us who issued your passports? But Finland is part of Schengen so standard Schengen rules apply.
