Hygiene Passport test

All Hygiene Passport tests are taken in a test venue supervised by a Hygiene Passport Examiner. All candidates take the test independently. The answers are given in writing on the Finnish Food Authority’s test form in Finnish, Swedish or English. 

Training before the test is not mandatory. Hygiene Passport tests cannot be taken electronically, remotely, in premises covered by domestic peace or abroad. 

Test venue

The Hygiene Passport Examiner must ensure that the test venue enables all candidates to take the test independently and in a peaceful environment. The use of a dictionary in the test is not allowed.

Time allowed for the test

The time allowed for completing the standard Hygiene Passport test is 45 minutes.  In tests for special situations, the time allowed for responding is not limited. Candidates may leave the test venue at the earliest 20 minutes after the test starts.
