Visa (short term)


International students and guests from certain countries need a visa to be allowed to enter Denmark. A visa to Denmark usually also gives access to the other Schengen countries*. The visa will be issued for a limited number of days and you must leave the Schengen region (or apply for extension) before the visa expires. A visa allows you to stay for a maximum of 90 days per 6 months in Denmark.

You can find a list of countries whose citizens must have a visa to enter Denmark on the website of the Danish Immigration Service:

The Danish embassy or consulate in your home country can also inform you whether, you need a visa to go to Denmark.

Please note that a visa can only be used for short-term visits. If you wish to stay in Denmark for a longer period (usually more the three months) you must apply for a residence permit before coming to Denmark. A visa does not grant the right to work in Denmark.

* The Schengen countries are:
Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta,  the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and Sweden.
