Publication date 16.10.2025 11.18
Type:News item

This year’s third issue opens up the Finnish Border Guard’s part in Finland’s military defence.  The Border Guard has been a part of our military defence in more than 100 years. 

Training of conscripts is one of the Border Guard’s duties. Military service at the Border Guard is a demanding training that is about to go through some interesting changes. MyMilitary offers new services to Finnish Border Guard’s reservists, too.

While the border crossing points on the eastern border have been closed, the focus of the Border Guard’s operations has shifted from border controls to surveillance of terrain border at the land borders. Meanwhile, we strongly invest in developing the border surveillance technique. Our strategic projects, that is to say the eastern barrier fence and the acquisition of aircraft, proceed in order to maintain Finland’s border security and to develop our border surveillance.
