Amount of the mobility allowance

The amount of the mobility allowance is EUR 37,21 per day in 2024 and 2025.

The amount of the mobility allowance is not affected by, for example, social benefits that reduce the amount of your earnings-related allowance.

You will receive a higher mobility allowance if

  • your place of work or school is located more than 200 kilometres from your current place of residence and
  • the job or related training, for which the mobility allowance has been granted, begins no later than 31 December 2024.

The amount of the increase is EUR 5,29 per day in 2024 and 2025.

Taxation of mobility allowances

The mobility allowance counts as taxable income, which your unemployment fund taxes at source on behalf of the Finnish Tax Administration. The amount of the tax deduction depends on your tax deduction card. See Taxation for more information.
