Finland is transitioning to digital official communications in 2026 – Come and listen to what this means for the wellbeing services counties!
Finland is currently transitioning to digital official communications. In early 2026, Suomi.fi Messages will be activated for every adult upon using strong identification to access a public administration e-service. This is a change that will impact the wellbeing services counties and their social welfare and health care customers.
Join us and find out what the change means for the counties and how they should prepare for it.
