On July 13 Finland is opening its borders for tourists from 17 European countries. The borders will only be open to EU countries that recorded fewer than 8 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants within the last 14 days. Restrictions for a number of countries, including Bulgaria, Sweden, Spain, Portugal, Poland, France, Czechia and Great Britain remain in place until August 11. In two weeks the Finnish authorities will reevaluate the situation to determine if other countries can be added or removed from this list.
