The full guide
There are genuinely two tiers, not one figure to clear: the ordinary scheme (DKK 552,000/year for 2026) grants a standard work permit, while the lower supplementary scheme (DKK 446,000/year) is a real tradeoff — you qualify at a lower salary, but your permit is strictly tied to the specific position in your application, with no ability to change roles, freelance, or take a second job without a separate permit.
Processing: Normally within 1 month, up to 3 months if further information is needed
