A process for the finishing of urea comprising: (a) removing water from an aqueous urea solution in a first evaporation and condensation section, obtaining a urea melt; (b) subjecting said urea melt to a finishing treatment comprising granulation and resulting in solid urea and air contaminated with urea dust and ammonia; (c) subjecting said contaminated air to acid scrubbing, producing an aqueous solution comprising urea and ammonium salts; (d) subjecting at least part of said aqueous solution to evaporation in a second evaporation section, obtaining a liquid stream comprising urea and ammonium salts and a gaseous stream; (e) condensing said gaseous stream in a second condensation section, obtaining a recycle aqueous stream; (f) using at least a part of said recycle aqueous stream for the scrubbing of contaminated air; (g) converting at least a portion of said liquid stream comprising urea and ammonium salts into solid particles, and (h) using said solid particles as seeds for the granulation; a correspondin
