Your Guide to a Smooth Start
Dreaming of working in Denmark? We are known for our great work-life balance. Before that, you must go through a recruitment process and secure a job offer from a Danish employer. Once the agreement is in place, you can begin the process of obtaining a work and residence permit to work in Denmark. Once granted, you will also have access to our welfare services, including free medical and hospital care.
To ensure a smooth process, you need the correct residence and work permit. The rules depend on your nationality and job type:
- EU citizens can work in Denmark but must apply for an EU residence certificate.
- Non-EU citizens must apply for a residence permit through SIRI under schemes such as Fast Track, the Pay Limit Scheme, or the Positive List.
Navigating the regulations can be time-consuming. At Relocation Syd, we guide you through the entire application process so you can start your new job in Denmark quickly and without hassle.
The processing time for your application varies, typically from one month or more.
Immigration in Denmark:

- Processing time: The application is reviewed, which can take from one to several months depending on the type of permit and workload at SIRI.
- Decision: Once approved by SIRI, you will receive a residence and/or work permit.
