Lost property

The police provides a lost and found service.

The owner must be notified of found lost items or they must be returned to the police as soon as possible. Typical items returned to the police include mobile phones, keys and bicycles found outside (e.g. on the streets or in parks).

Lost items found in public transport, train stations, bus stations or other similar places of transportation or business premises, offices, place of work, educational institutions, hospitals, theatres, sports halls or similar premises should be returned to the staff or lost and found of the premise in question. These are called property found in a public place.

The owner must be notified of found lost items or they must be returned to the police as soon as possible. Items whose acquisition or possession is prohibited or requires a permit from the authorities, e.g. drugs, illegal alcohol and firearms, must be delivered to the police immediately.

If you cannot transport the discovered lost items without danger or difficulty, it is enough to notify the police of the discovery. The police will give the finder a receipt for discovered items.

You can also return the item to a citizen service point that has agreed with the police to accept lost items or notify this kind of a service point.

Väliaikainen passi

Passi voidaan erityisestä syystä myöntää väliaikaisena, jos passin myöntäminen nopeutetussakaan aikataulussa ei ole mahdollista.

Passi voidaan erityisestä syystä myöntää väliaikaisena, jos passin myöntäminen nopeutetussakaan aikataulussa (pika- ja express-passit) ei ole mahdollista. Väliaikaisen passin myöntämisen edellytykset harkitaan aina tarkkaan ja tapauskohtaisesti. Väliaikainen passi myönnetään vain sille ajalle, jolle sen myöntäminen on välttämätöntä.

Väliaikaista passia ei voi hakea sähköisesti, vaan ainoastaan asioimalla henkilökohtaisesti poliisiasemalla. Jos passi myönnetään, se yksilöidään yleensä välittömästi poliisin lupapalvelupisteessä. Väliaikainen passi on koneluettava (ts. henkilötietosivun alalaidassa on koneluettavat tekstirivit, jotka sisältävät passin perustiedot), mutta siinä ei ole sirua.

Ohje: Väliaikaista passia voi hakea ainoastaan henkilökohtaisesti poliisiasemalla.
Väliaikainen passi voimassa enintään 12 kuukautta
