Having a residence card is mandatory for anyone residing in Denmark, as it is necessary for dealing with all formalities with Danish institutions. If you plan to stay longer than 3 months, a residence card becomes a necessity. EU, EEA and Swiss citizens are not required to obtain a card until 6 months after the start of their stay.
To obtain a residence card, register at one of Denmark's International Service Centers for Foreigners (ICS), the locations of which can be found at lifeindenmark.dk. Alternatively, you can go to your local Resident Service Center (Borgerservice), where you register with the Danish Civil Status Office (Folkeregistret). It's also worth noting that a residence card not only makes paperwork easier, but also allows you to take advantage of local services and entitlements.
Obtaining a certificate of residence first requires an application to be submitted to a regional Danish office. The application needs to be accompanied by several key documents. It is necessary to present a lease agreement or a deed for the purchase of the property to be used as the company's headquarters in Denmark. In addition, a financial plan for the first fiscal year, prepared by a certified Danish accountant, should also be attached.
Among the required attachments is a document confirming the company's registration, which should have already been submitted to the Trade and Enterprise Agency. Making sure that all documents are complete and in compliance with legal requirements will help avoid delays in the process. Careful preparation of the application ensures that the paperwork for obtaining a residence certificate is completed efficiently and effectively.
The most commonly required documents include:
- completed application form,
- employment contract,
- bank statement, which should not be older than 14 days and confirms that you have sufficient funds to support yourself during your stay,
- a valid passport or identity card
- a current passport photograph,
- when you apply as a family member of an employee, it will be necessary to provide additional documents confirming the family relationship,
- marriage certificate, if you are a spouse,
- birth certificates of children to confirm their relationship to the main applicant.
In some cases, additional documents may be required by officials depending on the specifics of your situation, so it is important to be prepared for possible additions.
In Denmark, residency registration can be done in one of three available ways. The first is to apply in person at the Provincial Office in Denmark. Another option is to send the necessary documents by snail mail or email.
In addition, registration can be done through the Embassy of the Kingdom of Denmark in Poland, which is located at 142 Marszalkowska Street in Warsaw. It is worth remembering that the choice of method depends on individual preferences and time possibilities. Using the embassy's services can be a convenient solution for those who are still in Poland and want to complete the formalities before departure. Regardless of the method chosen, it is important to include all the required documents so that the registration process goes smoothly.
To obtain a certificate of permanent residence in Denmark, you must apply to the municipality where you currently live. Alternatively, it is possible to apply online, where the fee for the certificate is DKK 82. In a situation where you don't have access to the Internet, you can go to one of the public libraries that offer access to computers, or you can use the assistance of the municipality.
The certificate of residence is particularly important for entrepreneurs, as it is impossible to conduct business in Denmark without it. This document is the basis for legally starting a business in the country. Its absence makes it impossible not only to formally register a company, but also to obtain an identification number, which is necessary for financial transactions and contracts. In addition, having a certificate of residency makes it easier to access other services and resources necessary for doing business, such as opening a bank account or applying for licenses and permits.
The CPR (Central Register of Persons) number, which every resident of Denmark receives, is essential for all formalities in Denmark. It is especially important when dealing with Danish institutions, especially in the context of tax and health insurance matters.
If you plan to stay in Denmark for more than 6 months, you are required to notify the relevant authorities. A CPR number can only be obtained if a person has a permanent residence in Denmark. The lack of this number can make everyday life in the country much more difficult, as it is required for many formalities, such as opening a bank account, entering into rental agreements or using medical services.
As of June 1, 2017, Copenhagen has made it mandatory to apply online to obtain a CPR number. It aims to simplify the paperwork and shorten the waiting time for obtaining an identification number. After submitting the application, you will have to wait for information from the International Center for Foreigners in Copenhagen, which will inform you that you need to appear in person to be assigned a number. For those living in other regions of Denmark, the opportunity to submit such applications exists at local Foreigners' Centers in cities such as Aarhus, Odense and Aalborg.
A tax identification number (CPR) is assigned once and accompanies you throughout your stay in Denmark. If you have previously stayed or worked in Denmark, your CPR number has already been assigned to you. When you re-enter Denmark, you use the same number.
People coming to Denmark from abroad who are just starting work must apply for a digital tax card so that their salary is taxed accordingly. This card, as well as a tax identification number, can be granted at the earliest one month before they actually start working in Denmark. In the absence of the card, tax will be charged at 55% of income.
In order to use the digital form to obtain a tax card, you need to prepare and scan several documents in PDF format beforehand. A copy of an identity document issued by a public authority is required. This document should include the data page of your passport or both sides of your ID card. A color, clear copy is required, on which the name, surname, date and year of birth, gender, citizenship, place of birth and expiration date of the document must be visible. In addition, it is necessary to present an employment document, such as an employment contract or employment certificate, which must be signed by both you and your employer. The entire document, including all pages, should be concatenated in one file.
If you meet the following three conditions, you can prepare your tax card yourself through skat.dk/tastselv or by filling out digital form 04.063. The first requirement is that you have a health insurance card with a CPR number and that you are a resident of Denmark. The second requirement is that you have lived in Denmark before starting work. The last requirement is that you have a MitID or TastSelv code.
In order to start registering a branch of a foreign company in Denmark, it is necessary not only to gather the necessary documents, but also to fill out a registration form. Once completed, this form should be sent to the Trade and Enterprise Agency.
The following documents should be attached to the application:
- An official certificate confirming the legality of the foreign company's activities,
- The charter of the foreign company,
- A notarized power of attorney granted to the person who is to act as branch director.
To apply for branch registration, you must include the following details:
- Details relating to the name, its scope of activity, legal form, share capital, address of the foreign company's headquarters, KRS number and annual financial statements.
- Details relating to the branch's name, registered office and object of activity, as well as details of the persons authorized to represent the branch.
If your health insurance or other type of insurance has been rejected or canceled, you have the right to file an appeal to allow the relevant authorities to reconsider the case.
It is important to follow the correct form when submitting an appeal to the insurer. You are required to provide your personal information and the case number assigned by the insurer. Adding a case or injury number to your appeal can significantly speed up its registration and affect faster processing.
When a decision of administrative bodies in Denmark does not meet your expectations, you have the opportunity to file an appeal to change or annul it. The processing of appeals from first-instance decisions takes place in a single proceeding and is conducted by the appeal authority. Filing an appeal is aimed at eliminating decisions that violate the rights and freedoms of individuals.
According to current regulations in Denmark, any taxpayer has the right to file an appeal from a tax decision that has been issued by the Danish Tax Authority (SKAT).
Decisions on Danish tax refunds are usually issued immediately for electronic settlements or within a maximum of three months for paper settlements. Appeals and corrections for earlier years are usually processed within 6 months, although in some cases the process may take a little longer.
The deadline for filing an appeal or correction is 3 years and 4 months from the date of the decision. It is worth noting that many people are unaware of the possibility of making a tax adjustment, which can be done up to five years after the end of the tax year.
If you are not satisfied with a court ruling in Denmark, you have the option of appealing to a higher court so that the case can be reviewed.
If your application for residency registration or any other decision related to your residency status in Denmark is rejected, you have the right to file an appeal to allow the case to be reconsidered.
