Stora Enso's SEC registration of its securities and related reporting obligations have been terminated

Stora Enso Corporation filed a Form 15F with the US Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) on 7 January 2008 to terminate its Section 12(g) registration
and Section 13(a) and Section 15(d) reporting obligations under the US
Securities Exchange Act. The 90-day waiting period, which was triggered upon
the filing of Form 15F, has now ended and the termination of reporting
obligations became effective today, 7 April 2008. 

From 7 April 2008 onwards, Stora Enso will continue to publish in English on
its website (www.storaenso.com) material that is required to be made public
pursuant to Finnish law, is required to be publicly filed with its primary
trading market or is required to be distributed to security holders. 

Following the SEC deregistration and the delisting from the New York Stock
Exchange on 31 December 2007, Stora Enso maintains a “Level 1” American
Depositary Receipt (ADR) facility with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas as
depositary, and Stora Enso's ADRs are traded over-the-counter on the
International OTCQX in the USA. Stora Enso's ordinary shares will continue to
trade on the OMX Nordic Exchanges in Helsinki and Stockholm.
