JOBS ABROAD - Denmark


	DENMARK GREENCARD SCHEME

	Work Experience


	Your work experience can be given points according to how many years, within the last five years, you have worked as a researcher or in a field where Denmark is currently experiencing a shortage of qualified professionals.

	Adaptability

	You can be given points for your educational or work related attachment to the EU/EEA (including Denmark) or Switzerland, as this is seen to increase your ability to quickly adapt to the Danish labour market. Points are given for either education or work.

	Age

	You can be given a maximum of 15 points for your age.

	Attached Documents

	When submitting your application for a residence permit, you will be required to attach certain documents. You can either attach original documents or copies of the original, provided that the Danish diplomatic mission (embassy or consulate general), the Danish police, or the Service Centre of the Immigration Service confirms that they have seen the original documents.

	Duration

	A residence permit under the Greencard scheme can be granted for up to three years with a possibility for extension of up to four years. Your residence permit can only be granted or extended up to three months before your passport expires. This means that if your passport expires in 12 months, you can only be granted a permit for nine months, or your permit can only be extended by nine months.

	Extension

	Your residence permit can be extended by four years if you have worked for the past 12 months for a minimum of ten hours per week. Your residence permit can be extended by one year if you have lost your job through no fault of your own (e.g. due to cutbacks) no more than three months before applying for an extension, and if prior to this, you worked for 12 months for a minimum of ten hours per week.

	Job Seeking in Denmark

	There is a special version of the Green card scheme for students who complete a higher educational programme in Denmark.

	Family Members

	If you hold a residence permit under the Green card scheme, your spouse, registered partner or cohabiting partner, as well as any children under the age of 18 who are living at home with you, are also eligible for residence permits. Your family members must be able to support themselves and you must live together in Denmark at the same address. Your spouse, registered partner or cohabiting partner is allowed to work full-time for the entire period his or her permit is valid. Thus even though you do not have a concrete job offer, it is still possible to come to Denmark to seek work. Contact us for further details and assessment.
