The Danish Migration Service has developed visa categories for Non-EU nationals as work and residence permit, under categories of “Positive list”, “Fast track scheme”, “Pay limit scheme”. These regulations allow experienced professionals from Non-EU countries to work in Denmark with extension possibilities for their visas.

Kontaktieren Sie uns to find out what visa category is required for hiring an international skilled worker from Non-EU based on your salary range, job responsibilities, and your business type.

It is important to note that the average waiting period for the arrival of an employee is typically around 1,5 months. This is primarily due to the mandatory visa processing time. Waiting time for work and residence permit remains the same even if an employee applies for the visa from Denmark.

Please note that employees from Non-EU countries aren’t allowed to start working until the appropriate work and residence permit is issued to your place.

As a result, it is crucial for companies to plan ahead and account for this waiting period when organizing their recruitment process. By taking a pragmatic approach and considering the necessary visa processing time, companies can ensure that they are able to receive qualified workers in a timely manner, while also adhering to all relevant regulations and procedures.

Employees typically work 37 hours per week, with a possibility to take overtime working hours.

In order to host Non-EU employees, adequate living conditions need to be provided by employers for a monthly rent. The rent needs to be affordable for the employees, as they will be paying it from their monthly salary.
