Finnish Border Guard


The Finnish Border guard (Finnish: ''Rajavartiolaitos'', Swedish: ''Gränsbevakningsväsendet'') is the national security agency responsible for enforcing the security of Finland's borders. It is a paramilitary organization, subordinate to the Ministry of the Interior in administrative issues and to the President of the Republic in issues pertaining to the president's authority as Commander-in-Chief (e.g. officer promotions). The Border Guard has police and investigative powers in immigration matters and can independently investigate immigration violations. The Border Guard has search and rescue (SAR) duties, both maritime and inland. The Guard operates SAR helicopters that are often used in inland SAR, in assistance of a local fire and rescue department or other authorities.
The border guard's active duty personnel consists of 3,800 men and women. The Finnish Border Guard has also 500 conscripts who are not used for border control during peace time. Upon mobilisation the Border Guard would be wholly or partly incorporated into the Finnish Defence Forces and its strength increased with reservists who have served their conscription in the border guard. The mobilized strength of the Border Guard is 12 600 servicemen. The Finnish-Russian border is actively monitored and patrolled by the Border Guard. The western sea borders and the western and northern land borders to Sweden and Norway are free to cross under the Nordic passport union, however the Border Guard does maintain personnel in these regions owing to its SAR duties.
There is a separate Finnish Customs agency, and immigration is handled also by the local police and Finnish Directorate of Immigration. PTR (police, customs and border guard) cooperation is well-developed and allows the authorities to conduct each other's duties as necessary.
==Duties and jurisdiction==

Main duties of the Finnish Border Guard:
* Protecting the land borders and territorial waters of Finland from unauthorised encroachment.
* Passport control at border crossing points, airports and ports.
* First line of defence against territorial invasions
* Rescue operations (mainly at sea and in the remote areas of Lapland).
* Provide aid to other authorities such as the Fire Department in case of unusual events like wild fires.
* Investigation of crimes pertaining to border security.
* Aiding Police forces in civil duties such as crowd control and riot control.
* Military operations pertaining to internal security.
* Customs control in the minor border crossing points without customs authorities.
* Training of conscripts for wartime duty. These include rajajääkäri (border jaegers) and erikoisrajajääkäri (special border jaegers).
* (during wartime) Long range patrols and guerrilla tactics behind enemy lines.
For the discharge of its duties, the Border Guard has limited police powers in the areas where it operates. It can, for example, seize and arrest persons and conduct searches in apartments and cars pursuant to same legislation as the police, when investigating a crime. However, the power to arrest a person has been delegated only to the commanding officers of a border control detachments and commanders and vice-commanders of larger units.
The Border Guard is not supposed to be used for the keeping of public order under normal circumstances, but it has two readiness platoons that can be used to support the Police in exceptional situations in matters of crowd control and internal security (including incidents involving dangerous armed criminals).〔(Valmiusjoukkueet ). Finnish Border Guard. Reterieved 2015-07-07. .〕
The readiness platoons have been used to supplement riot police during high profile international events where there is a perceived danger of violent demonstrations, e.g. during the "Smash ASEM" demonstration in 2006.〔(Smash ASEM: mielenosoitus joka ei koskaan alkanut ). Yle Elävä arkisto. 10.1.2012. Retrieved 2015-07-07. 〕However, the main duty of the readiness platoons is to handle the most demanding border security incidents.〔 Border Guard helicopters have also been used to assist police and rescue authorities in various missions.
The Border Guard also has the power to keep public order in its own facilities and in their immediate vicinity. For the execution of its military exercises, any officer with the minimum rank of Captain can close an area temporarily.
The Border Guard is responsible for enforcing the 3–5 km border zone towards Russia and issues the permits to visit the zone.
