Editing Right of return (section)

=== Finland ===
People of Finnish origin may receive citizenship by declaration, which is faster and cheaper than naturalization and has fewer requirements. People of Finnish origin can be: 1) children, born abroad, of a Finnish father; 2) 12–17-year-old adopted children; 3) former Finnish citizens; 4) citizens of another [[Nordic countries|Nordic country]]; 5) 18-22-year-olds with a long residency in Finland.<ref>{{Cite web | url=https://migri.fi/suomen-kansalaisuus | title=Suomen kansalaisuus}}</ref> Formerly, Finland also accepted returnees with a [[Soviet Union passport|Soviet passport]] (or post-Soviet passport) where the ethnicity was marked as Finnish. This allowed the immigration of [[Ingrian Finns]] and other Finns who had remained in the Soviet Union. People who served in the [[Finnish Defence Forces]] or Finnish people evacuated by German or Finnish authorities from occupied areas to Finland during World War II also qualified as returnees. However, these options are no longer available, and applicants must qualify for ordinary naturalization instead.
