Moving to Helsinki but working remotely in different country?
So here's thing: I wanting to move to Helsinki. I being EU citizen, so as per infoFinland.fi, no need to be employed in Finland for right of residence if having "sufficient resources to support myself."
I am software developer, working remotely. I research cost of living in Helsinki, and I think I have enough money to afford living there, no need to change job right now. But I am worrying if immigration services agree with me on that.
So my question is: has anybody here trying this way? Moving to Finland for good, but still employed in another country? If so, did you get right of residence without problems?

Not sure can you stay longer than some certain period of time but not sure about permanent residence .
I think,, if you are employed to another country and living in other.. there might some big questions about taxation as well..
Try to search / ask help from Migri, service for immigration: https://migri.fi/en/home
I think you can be 3 moths here without worrying any residence card / permission if you are from EU country.
Make sure that you have European Healthcare card, so you will receive health care cost as if you would be a citizen here.
