The hygiene passport test comprises 40 statements. To obtain the hygiene passport, a minimum of 34 points is required from the test. It is conducted independently and in writing in a test room under the supervision of a hygiene passport test instructor. The test cannot be completed electronically or remotely. During a standard test session (Finnish, English, Swedish), participants have 45 minutes to respond to the statements and may leave no earlier than 20 minutes after the test begins.

BEFORE THE HYGIENE PASSPORT TEST

Before the hygiene passport test, it is important to arrive at the test premises on time, no later than 15 minutes before the test begins. Being late may prevent entry to the test, unless it occurs within the first 20 minutes after the test starts. You must also bring an original, photo ID that is valid and official, which will be checked when you submit your test form.

AFTER THE HYGIENE PASSPORT TEST

I passed the test – when will I receive my hygiene passport?

The Finnish Food Authority will issue you a hygiene passport certificate and card, which will be mailed to you approximately 4–6 weeks after the hygiene passport test. If you need your hygiene passport urgently, you can always request a temporary certificate from the test instructor. The temporary certificate is valid until the official certificate arrives.

I didn't succeed – now what?

No worries, many people have to retake the hygiene passport test. The retake fee is always cheaper than the first time! Study the topics that were challenging for you and practice for the test. Book a new appointment when you feel more confident about the subject area!
