===Finland === [[File:Förhandsröstning presidentval TY 2012.jpg|thumb|Early voting in the [[2012 Finnish presidential election]] on the premises of [[University of Turku]], Finland]] In Finland, eligible voters may cast ballots either on election day or by advance voting.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://vaalit.fi/en/voting|title=Voting|work=Vaalit.fi|publisher=Finnish Ministry of Justice|access-date=December 4, 2022}}</ref> Advancing voting begins on a Wednesday, eleven days before election day.<ref name=VotingAdvance>{{cite web|url=https://vaalit.fi/en/voting-in-advance|title=Voting in Advance|work=Vaalit.fi|publisher=Finnish Ministry of Justice|access-date=December 4, 2022}}</ref> The advance-voting period ends eight days before election day (for votes cast abroad at designated Finnish embassies) and five days before election day (for votes cast within Finland). Any qualified voter may cast a ballot at a "general advance polling station" (a Finland municipal office or certain post offices and Finnish embassies abroad).<ref name=VotingAdvance/> "Special advance polling stations" are set up at hospitals for patients and prisons for detainees. Additionally, Finnish voters who are unable to travel to advance polling stations due to mobility impairments or illness may cast advance ballots at home (election commissioners make house calls to receive votes from such person). Crews of traveling Finnish ships may also cast ballots via advance voting, beginning 18 days before election day.<ref name=VotingAdvance/>
