The operational work for maritime search and rescue services is the responsibility of the Coast Guard Districts of Western Finland and the Gulf of Finland, which have their command centres located in Turku and Helsinki. The area within which the Border Guard is responsible for maritime search and rescue operations is divided into two parts: The West Finland Search and Rescue Sub-Region and the Gulf of Finland Search and Rescue Sub-Region. Each coast guard district is responsible for their own region. In addition, a management team has been appointed for each maritime search and rescue region to ensure the coordination of the activities of the authorities and other entities.
