The wording of the terms is clarified, and the new structure better reflects the customer journey in the Eräluvat.fi service. The terms also specify how and where customers can place an order, how they benefit from logging in during the ordering process, and whom to contact in case of problems or changes.
The fisher must check the protected areas, restricted areas, landing restrictions and other restrictions in the Ekenäs Archipelago National Park Instructions and Rules, which can be found at Luontoon.fi service. For example, campfires and camping are only permitted at the sites specifically designated for these activities.
The Hästö-Busö restricted area may be closed off for military operations.
