Finland’s TV fee is currently 244, 90 euros and is the primary source of income for the Finnish Broadcasting Company, YLE.

Every householder is obliged to pay the TV fee even if he or she owns only one of piece of equipment capable of receiving television broadcasts. One payment is, however, sufficient, if a television is operated by the same household at a summer cottage.
