Korean Embassy in Finland - Address & Contact
Embassy of the Republic of Korea in Finland
The Korean Embassy in Helsinki has served Finland since diplomatic relations were established in 1973. Finland, a Nordic EU member bordering Russia, has been a technology and innovation partner for Korea — Nokia's legacy in mobile communications, where it competed with and influenced Korean manufacturers, is just one example of the technological cross-pollination between the two countries. Finland's accession to NATO in April 2023 has also given the bilateral relationship a new security dimension as Korea watches Nordic security dynamics closely.

South Korea – Finland Diplomatic Relations
Korea and Finland established diplomatic relations in August 1973 and have maintained warm, productive ties. The technology sector is a defining feature of the relationship: Finland was the world leader in mobile phones through Nokia before the smartphone era, and the Finnish gaming and tech ecosystem has intersected with Korean digital industries in creative ways. Korean companies such as Samsung and Hyundai have technical and commercial relationships with Finnish counterparts. Finland's EU membership and the Korea-EU FTA provide the framework for trade and investment cooperation. Finland's recent NATO membership is of considerable interest to Korea as it reflects changing European security architecture.
