Anyone know how to get this official “letter from a licensed healthcare provider or a public health official stating that you were cleared to travel” (due to “recovery from COVID-19”)?
This is for a person with a positive test result from Mehiläinen and access to OmaKanta.

The positive test result and letter together are referred to as “documentation of recovery.”

I am guessing, unless I am misreading, that if you follow the stated requirements the documentation is provided. I don’t know if this is a chargeable service by your healthcare centre or something a private provider can offer.
You have to get a letter from your personal doctor that you can travel. Your doctor should include their name, address, license number, phone number. Letter should be dated a well. Hope this helps. ETA: This letter should be in English
