Cancellation by Participant:
All cancellations must be submitted via email to info@visitedufinn.com. If you are unable to attend, you may substitute someone else from the same organization by notifying us. Payments made to date will be retained as a cancellation fee.
Cancellation by VisitEDUfinn:
In case the shadowing is cancelled due to COVID-19 or similar force majeure situations, we will postpone the visit until it is possible again. VisitEDUfinn is not responsible for any damages caused by the cancellation and strongly recommends purchasing flexible flight tickets and accommodation.
Invitation Letters for Visa Purposes
VisitEDUfinn will issue invitation letters only after full payment is received. If a participant is unable to obtain a visa and provides evidence of the rejected application, we will refund the paid amount, minus a 100€ administrative fee.
VAT Exemption
All prices exclude Finnish VAT (25,5%). There are two options to qualify for VAT exemption:
- If your country is part of the European Union, and your school/organization has a valid VAT number (you can check it in VIES), please introduce the number, including the country code, on the checkout page in “EU VAT Number”.
- If your country is not part of the European Union, please send an official document, such as a tax certificate or trade register extract from your country, to info@visitedufinn.com, and we will provide you with a link for registration without VAT.

All registrations must be completed using the online registration form.
Euneos courses have a fixed price, typically covered by the Erasmus+ grant. The fee for a 7-day course is 660€, while a 5-day course is 500€, excluding any special arrangements.
Invoices are sent via email and must be paid by either the participant or their school/organization. Ensure you include the reference number when paying.
Schools or organizations sending five or more participants receive a 10% discount.
To cancel a course and receive a refund (minus 160€ for administrative costs), notify Euneos (courses@euneos.eu) at least 30 days before the course start date. COVID-19-related cancellations follow special rules, requiring flexible flight and hotel arrangements.
Participants are responsible for their own travel insurance and social security. EU citizens may use the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) alongside their travel insurance.
Even though Euneos courses are confirmed, we highly recommend booking only flexible flights or accommodation. Euneos is not responsible for any travel and other arrangements.
