More details
A Schengen visa is meant for short stays in or transit through the Schengen area of a duration of no more than 90 days in any 180-day period. A visa issued by one Schengen state is valid for travelling in any Schengen state, but you must apply for the visa from the country of your main destination. If your country of destination is Finland, you should apply for a visa from the nearest Finnish mission or the visa centre that the mission advises to you. Honorary consuls and consulates cannot grant visas. It has been agreed with some countries that Finland may be represented by another Schengen state. In such cases, apply for a visa to Finland from the mission of that Schengen state. An application cannot be sent by e-mail or telefax. If you want to stay in Finland for a longer period than three months, you need a residence permit.
It is good to remember that a visa application can always be submitted, but no advance decision on the visa application can be made. In the case of Schengen visas, the missions apply the EU’s Common Visa Code https://eur-lex.europa.eu/
