Finnish-Greek relations are foreign relations between Finland and Greece. Greece was among the first countries to recognize the independence of Finland, on January 5, 1918. Both countries established diplomatic relations in 1920. Since February 1, 1977, Finland has had an embassy in Athens. For a long period Finland was represented in Greece through its embassies either in Bucharest, Rome or Belgrade. Greece has an embassy in Helsinki.

Both countries are full members of the European Union, NATO, Council of Europe, and Eurozone. There are 1,681 Greeks living in Finland,[1] and 1,600 Finns living in Greece.[2] Greece strongly supported Finland's NATO membership during the latter's accession process. In September 2022, Greece fully approved Finland's application for NATO membership.[3]
