A fundraising permit is an authorization granted by the National Police Board that allows the Finnish Red Cross to collect funds for domestic and international aid work. In Åland, the permit is granted by the Government of Åland. The permit ensures that our fundraising activities are transparent and lawful, and that donations are used for the relief work they are intended for.

Finnish National Police Board fundraising permit RA/2020/1407/9.11.2020 is valid for the time being throughout Finland, with the exception of Åland.

Provincial government of Åland, permit no. ÅLR 2025/8320/23.12.2025, is valid from 1.1.2026 to 31.12.2026.
