Space activities require authorisation from the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment

Space activities require authorisation from the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment. Authorisation and supervision procedures lean on the Act on Space Activities (63/2018), and its supplementing Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment Decree on Space Activities (74/2018). 

If you are sending a satellite or other space object to space, contact the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment in good time and submit the application for authorisation to the ministry no later than six months before the planned launch of the space object.
